Oh, I know I could. In fact, I have two of them bookmarked on my computer right now. But that's not the point: I *want* to pay for this. I'd be happy to pay for this. The leagues/teams simply refuse to do this because they will not trade the known (TV rights fees) for the unknown (online licensing payments), even though the unknown could be significantly higher. They are the pinnacle of risk-averse when it comes to their business models. And that just drives me up the wall.
(Besides: those streams don't allow me to watch the event with any sort of time shifting, which is kind of important for those who don't want to wake up at 3:30 AM CT for a Grand Prix from Asia.) I will stop here before I turn this into a larger rant that ends with me telling an entire generation of people to just start dying already.
