Why, CBC, did I have to surf over to CSPAN to get a stream of the CBC News broadcast? I'm living in Taiwan, following the election back home, and extremely frustrated by your online coverage. I've finally been able to get a CBC Radio stream (another run around thanks to your lack of support for Macs).

Pathetic online presence!

Pathetic online presence, CBC.

I'm living in Taipei, trying to follow the election back home, and reduced to watch the broadcast streamed on CSPAN.

It's NOT all that difficult to get a live video stream online.
