NBC Olympics' Discovery Service

[Nate Klingenstein]

Users everywhere,

The NBC Olympics are offering live streaming online to customers of  
most telecoms that would have access to the same content via TV.  How  
do they authorize users for the service?  Why, with a DS(first IP- 
address based hinting, then a drag-down menu) and SAML 2.0, of course.

Not specifically relevant to Shibboleth, but it's neat to see a large  
commercial sector working on a DS; might be an opportunity for a  
little bilateral tech transfer, so I wanted to share.

Take care,
Nate.
