    Even the BBC will only show highlights, not whole matches.
    "Some say the cup is half empty, while others say it is half full. However, this is skirting around the issue. The real problem is that the cup is too big."

    They are showing all the BBC matches live on the web in full as well as highlights.

    Quote..........(from the BBC here)

    All of the BBC's 2006 World Cup matches will also be broadcast exclusively live on the BBC Sport website.

    The service will be available to UK broadband users and will mirror terrestrial and interactive coverage.

    In addition there will be four-minute highlight packages from every single game of the tournament on demand.

    Channelchooser now broadcasts ESPN, which apparantly (my US friends assure me) carries world cup matches :)

    might catch the ones not shown on BBC on there.

    Try http://www.bbc.co.uk/multicast/

    You can get BBC1-4 and ITV1-4 if you have an ISP that supports it.
