It seems ridiculous, but NBC has finally discovered streaming and On Demand viewing of olympic events. While they've kept primetime viewing, the addition of independent viewing has changed the game for NBC.
While viewers could always rely on Twitter or other news sites to fill them in on the winners, seeing it on television is always the best part. A news article can't explain each performance of figure skating in detail, nor can it tell you how snowboarder, Sage Kotsenburg looked flying through the course during his gold medal slopestyle run.
It may have taken the networks a few years, but everyone is finally on the same page with free, streaming recaps of events.
Maybe you're awake at 3 a.m. for the live broadcasts, but I'll bet most of us aren't.
Even if all you care about are American gold medals, you can still turn on the Olympics and watch us win at your leisure.
Thanks, NBC, for finally giving us the chance to watch when, how, and what we please.
