    BBC Olympics livestreams- region blocked?
    I live in the ROI. I have access to all BBC channels- even though no license fee, they are all transmitting here. I have access to iplayer radio, but not iplayer itself. Does anyone know if the live streams of the Olympics will have a similar set-up, ie. region-blocked online?

    Yes, I would think so. AFAIK you can't access any BBC online content from outside the UK (at least, I never can when I'm abroad)
