btw, I'm a lifelong supporter of BBC and license fee
but that was a stupid arrogant wanker decision
to waste such scarce HD bandwidth.

They should have broadcast live in normal 2D
and tried to work out extra bandwidth for a 2nd 3D only channel
for duration of Olympics,
or negotiate extended hours to timeshift the 3D to the early hours
for anyone with a 3D telly to record it.
