Highlights of the Beijing Olympics will be streamed daily on YouTube to 77 territories where the digital rights have not be sold or acquired on a non-exclusive basis.
The package will include highlights, news, daily clips directed mostly for the people of Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
“For the first time in Olympic history we will have complete global online coverage, and the IOC will have its own broadcast channel and content production facilities,” said Timo Lumme, the IOC’s director of television and marketing services.
Countries outside of the 77 territories will be “geo-blocked”. The channel is www.youtube.com/beijing2008.
