Hi,

Does anyone know whether BEin sports in Canada will be showing the six nations ?
The six nations website does not mention who is carrying it in Canada, but mentions BEin for USA.

Thanks

If memory serves me correctly, beIN carried the Six Nations tournament last year.

beIN will be showing the Six Nations on a delayed basis. They "may" have one match live but that will depend on other programming commitments. TV5 will have the France home matches as always. All the matches will be shown "live" via premiumsports.tv

BBC iPlayer via a VPN or unblock-us would seem to be the easiest and most economical legal way to watch all of the 6 Nations tournament live.

France's opener against the tournament's minnow's Scotland is not currenty listed for TV5 on the ShawDirect tv guide, I trust that will change.

Actually, the easiest legal way to watch would be signup for beIN Connect and stream all the matches live online.

.. but $20 a month to subscribe to the beIN service that only has the games on tape delay would not enable watching the games live at all.

I think you're confusing the TV channel for the online offering. They are two separate things. If you have the online subscription, they have multiple live streams of the various sports they have rights to.

Who has the online streaming rights?

It looks like Bein is showing the games on a same day basis. They have England-Wales on Friday night at 7, France-Scotland at 7pm on Saturday and Italy-Ireland at 1am on Sunday.

In addition to using Unblockus to stream BBC you can also use Unblockus to stream RTE which is the Irish channel.

At least Bein is somewhat better than Setanta/Rogers back in 2013 and earlier as they showed the games a day late.
