Where are these torrents, with high quality video posted in near real time?

EDIT: I'm half serious, I wouldn't mind seeing Phelps lose, I missed it live. I'm an American, the NBC video website doesn't let me log in for some reason even though I have a valid account that worked yesterday (no error message, it just brings me back to the login screen every time), and they seem to be scrubbing YouTube quite well.

My private tracker has 720p recordings of events 10-15 minutes after they end.

So when you said "this seems pointless", you meant "this seems pointless if you have access to some particular private bittorrent tracker". I trust you can see the difference there :)

Getting access to a private tracker isn't that hard, and you can probably find the stuff on EZTV anyway.

We are all ears.

Sopcast has been around for many years..

You're right! I forgot that it was p2p.
