Fox Streaming Online - It actually works now - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Fox Network has begun streaming shows on select affilliate sites.

http://streaming.myfoxny.com
http://streaming.myfoxdc.com
http://streaming.myfoxal.com

and many more now stream select fox shows.

The streams are only availible to those in the US (or those who use a US proxy), I don't think each affiliate site is actually able to check your location - so any site should probably work.

Will SO cover this like they did ABCs FES?

Thank you for your interest in viewing Fox programming. At this time, the viewing is limited to specific geographic locations based on participating stations. This service may be made available in additional areas in the near future.

Well, that answers THAT. (No, my FOX affil is NOT O&O, ergo...)

Did you try the AL site, that even lets me in the UK through!

What's to cover? This is not national and I'm in the NY market and it doesn't even work for me! Maybe when (if) it turns national like In2TV, ABC FES, CBS innertube, NBC's Dot Comedy, etc. we will cover it.

And THAT'S on the AL one.

So, let's get this straight: UK: Good. KY: Bad.

I love the paradoxical irony the internet is so full of.

Well, they seem to have made some changes.

I had to upgrade the player.

I can still get in from the UK, in fact I can get to sites like NY and DC which I couldn't before.

I'm trying to play an episode but it appears to have to download everything first, its using 300KB/s of my bandwidth and not actually playing.

They have fully updated it now, it does detect I am not in the right area.

For those who it mislocates it offers a chance for you to enter a valid address in the area and gain access, ofcourse a visit to Google Maps or a quick search in Google and you'll be sure to find an address.
