I'm on a Mac here and eurosport.com's live audio isn't working for me.

Any other recommendations?

Thanks

...and its not working on my work PC.

I know there are probably some bandwidth issues right now, but can anyone recommend something else?

Thanks

BDS,

I kept trying and discoverd that when Eurosport launches for me it launches ina small window. There is a box with an arrow that I clicked on for the "expanded" view. It then launched with an ad, and then I could choose audio from the list of live broadcasts, and suddenly, it worked. Don't know why . . . .

I don't know about audio feeds; but I found this link on here a couple of days ago and I have watched all stages audio/visual since: http://www.channelsurfing.net (scroll down about 1/2-way down the page). Hope that this helps.

@ Tio -
thanks for the link!

@ Stickney -
weird...now its working. I'm not going to complain.

I think this is the first time I've heard David Harmon -- and Sean Kelly is a great listen.

Well, makes me feel a bit better that I am not alone. I tried the channelsurfing link, but that shut off as well. Oh well, velonews updates I guess.

I had problems yesterday & today....very disappointing. I guess text updates are better than nothing, though.

Yeah, Eurosport does not work today for me either. Its really frustrating! :mad:

So I'm left with checking L'Equipe's updates which mostly amount to telling us that some modest French rider moved from 110th to 90th place on km 122.... :rolleyes:

So... if anyone would like to post little tidbits about today's stage it would be much appreciated.... :o

IMHO letour.com has great coverage as far as text play by play goes. Plus they have a really cool graphic of the stage profile and were they are minute by minute.
