I take it you have only OTA TV. Are you near Canada? I am in SE lower MI and get CBC both by cable and OTA-although Canada is not broadcasting in hi-def, oddly enough...
I just thought, what about internet streaming but sam3 beat me to it.

"Where would you VPN into? Do you have a foreign machine somewhere?"
I have no idea at the moment. I am entirely new to the concept. My sister is in London...

You know, at this late hour you just might be better off throwing $ at the dilemma and spending the $65. You can handle the temporary upgrade over the phone and be done with it. Watch and enjoy everything and cancel the service next month.
The alternative is to rush around trying to find an alternative, meanwhile missing a lot of events. There is no guarantee you will succeed in finding a better solution.
You will still be pissed that it is necessary, but WILL get to watch the Olympics.
Your only free and easy option is to watch it online (TV station) the next day, providing the events you want to watch are available online.

Modelamac, i fear that you are absolutely correct and that that will be my course of action.
Thanks all.
Happy Olympics and may team GB win at least a few medals!
