I have digital TV, but to get the OLN, I have to update to an expanded package and pay more.

:rolleyes:

I think when my contract runs out on the digital cable, I'll be looking towards satellite cable instead. No Tour updates this year unless I go to one of the websites... again! <sigh>

If you have the bandwidth, you can at least listen to the live audio stream (http://boss.streamos.com/wmedia-live/oln/4895/28_oln-tour_live_030623.asx).

Can you give me the actual website where I can get the live audio stream?

I cannot open your link- I need to use another program to listen to the audio feed. Thanks!

Sure... you can get to it from the official TdF site (http://www.letour.com/2003/us/index.html).

Koffee, you need an application that can plat asx file types, such as Winamp (http://www.winamp.com/).

I think Joe meant play. Or maybe he was trying to be French as in "plat du jour"... plate of the day. :D

Oooooohhhh....

Play makes sense. I thought there was something special I would have to download or something... I got it.

Thanks for the help, guys!
