The BBC is reporting:
Quote:
-Discovery and Eurosport confirmed they will develop a new Olympic TV Channel across Europe.
-Media watchdog Ofcom lists the Olympics as a category A event, which must have live coverage made available to free-to-air channels.
-In a statement, Discovery said it was committed to broadcasting a minimum of 200 hours of the Olympic Games and 100 hours of the Olympic Winter Games on free-to-air television, during the games period.

Free-to-air rights moving from The BBC to Discovery's Quest (It broadcast on Freeview right now)?
