TV coverage of the tour

To quote the ITV 4 Forum.......
The issues with Red Button on Freeview are down to bandwidth. There just isn't room to do it. We judged it better to offer the Red Button service where we could rather than not at all. We also looked at the feasibility of offering the live feed via the web site but there are rights issues.
Hopefully the Red Button service will prove popular & we'll be able to expand it next year. There will be a live text commentary service via the web site for those who can't watch at work.

Is it possible to get Eurosport on the internet? Or France2/France3 (air the whole stages)?

Try http://www.cyclingfans.com/ - they have various Eurosport feeds, but they also scour the net for other, better quality feeds so if you keep an eye on that website on the day of the race then something decent might turn up.

I just checked their site and they have several options.

Anybody press the red button on ITV 4? Did you get the feed full screen and if so how? I had an image size about the size of a quarter of the screen fairly unwatchable and went off to watch it on Eurosport dissapointed after ITV'S big fanfare.
