I checked out the NBC Olympics iPhone app and my first reaction is “impressed.” I set up alerts to be push notified when my sport comes on, I cam read stories in the app without having to launch Safari (a pet peeve), and I can see scheduling of all the upcoming coverage. Only problem is, I don’t get NBC at home.
NBC has had a great opportunity to stream this content live, but refuses to put any primetime coverage online. I think this is going to hurt them in the long run. I would run to any online streaming provider with open arms (if you know any, please recommend). But if you have an iPhone, the app is worth checking out.
As a footnote, I want to add that Ryan Moser (twitter: @myanroser) and I are going to be doing more app reviews on YouTube, so if you have any requests, please let us know!
