Nice! It's happening!

So glad they didn't put Levrone on the graphic.

[danielmoo]

I was getting worried for a while there. Can't wait!

[TropicalSunset]

OH, Amazon is covering it? Will this finally mean high quality stream? I wonder how you will pay for it and how much it will cost.

I disagree. Levrone's comeback is the most exciting thing about this Mr. O. It's what everyone is talking about. Not Dexter. And Levrone's comeback is stirring up way more talk and hype than Dexter ever could. Granted, Dexter took 2nd last year, and he has earned that spot on the poster. But the reality is for the majority of bodybuilding fans, Dexter isn't what this year's show is all about. It's Kevin and his comeback.

It was same thing last year IIRC. It's free btw

My internet connection's been upgraded from 6mb/s to 25mb/s fiber, which is pretty great for Australia. This year, I max the quality!

(I've heard legends that in NZ internet speeds can reach 100mb/s or more)

Quality has been great for several years for me. High definition and almost no outage.

My problem has been the camera crew and commentary

What? You don't like seeing their left calf in a front double bicep pose?

[Aussieguy101]

Is it available world wide or is there a USA region lock on the stream ?

That's what I'm on now but you'll never actually see that speed. Had some door knocker harassing me the other week pitching their providers 200MB/s speeds. Told him to eat a dick and never return.

The last three or so webcasts have been trouble free.

World wide

I might remember it wrong, because I remember the quality not being that great. But you are spot on about the camera direction and commentary. I also love how not only do they focus on one body part, like the calf, but they will show one calf of ONE competitor during a group comparison. LOL.

It was horrible in my college years. It has been steady since 2012 for both Arnold and Olympia. Last year s quality was definitely 720 if not 1080.

As for camera, I would just place it in the middle and leave it there from thursday to sunday with no zoom ins or outs lmao.

For commentary, I would like Dan Solomon(he is boring but I like him, not too biased in my opinion) with interchanging commentary digital muscle style with Palumbo, Wheeler, Cutler

They can have coverage right after the judging etc.

[TropicalSunset]

Do we know yet if this is free or what will be covered exactly?

[stealth_swimmer]

Yup. Was a great quality stream provided for free.

Not just you, Amazon is doing this so they can dominate shipping for all fitness enthusiasts. i hope it will lead to something else by Friday

I assume they're still setting it up, yesterday it just took you to an error page.

[JohnSmeton]

id like Dorian Yates, Lee Haney, and Ronnie to be commentators. only makes sense for past Olympians

anyone know whos commentating this year?

[TropicalSunset]

Yeah, nothing in set up at all as of yet. I would figure that Amazon would be more professional than that. But it could have been a last minute thing.
