WE ARE THE WINNERS!!!!!!
 
Nothing compared with the Spanish coverage.Only the first 3 hours are covered live, then they take a break for the bicycle event of LE TOUR the France  ( incredible!!).
When he decided come back  4 hours later,the last 3 hours they covered the event with  cuts of some of the songs they past before and we see  everything broadcast, nothing live, till Pink Floyd.
 
The coments are incredible, 2 young journalist who named   "S.O.S" song  perfomed by STING!!!!!.instead of "Message in A Bottle".They break every 10 minutes for comercial..and the most funny and important, the event was covered for the "National Spanish TV"  RTVE and not for any  private  channel.
 
Really, nothing compared with the "f....ing Spanish TV"..nothing.
 
toni  from Catalonia (not Spain!!!!)
 
In my case, I follow the UK show by AOL.

I'm on a U2 list and everyone has talked about how terrible the US TV coverage was. Apparently, the ROTW had great coverage of the concerts. But in the US it's like it would have killed MTV to show an entire song without breaking away to a commercial or commentary (the same thing, every time) from the VJs.
 
I caught the last 2 seconds of Driven to Tears after coming home from the grocery store. I flung the bags on the counter and sat to watch EBYT, melting ice cream be dammed. The ice cream didn't have long to wait, however. MTV only showed about half of EBYT then went to the announcers chatting while I could barely hear and see Sting in the background. They did that with every artist. Shameful.
