Streaming the Olympics: How YouTube and NBC do it

3,500 hours of live coverage from the event on the web and through native apps .... A partnership with the IOC put YouTube in charge of the online video feeds for 64 countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia, including India, Singapore, Kenya, Ghana and Malaysia. ...... “We are using the backbone of a pretty scalable video delivery network”

The Olympic Games are quite a celebration of humanity. I want the next World Cup on YouTube as well, live as well as archived. .
