Streaming March Madness On Linux?

Posted by timothy on from the when-you-can-snatch-this-pebble-from-my-hand dept.

neersign writes "March Madness is here and NCAA.com is streaming all of the games over the internet for free. The downside is they are using Microsoft technologies to do so. The standard player lists Windows XP/Vista, IE6, and WMP 9 as the base requirements. The High Quality Video Player requires Silverlight 2. So my question is: how would a Linux user be able to work around these requirements and watch the games?"

    I laughed, when it told me I needed Windows, Windows Media Player, Internet Explorer.

    I want to barrage them with emails saying "So are you saying I cannot view this running Linux, with Totem, Using Firefox?"
    O boy what gives. LOL
