Local cable company to Vista Media Center

Live streaming Silverlight footage from NBCOlympics.com
I was checking out what events were on right after the opening ceremonies and couldn’t help but notice the difference in quality between the live Silverlight feeds vs my local cable to TV tuner/Vista Media Center combo. As you can see above, even though the sizes aren’t exactly the same, the Silverlight stream was definately way more sharp and vibrant compared to the Media Center’s.
To me that’s just amazing that we can have live streaming footage from China on my 200KB/s downstream that’s of higher quality than a local cable connection.
