>>The CBC has made The Border ... http://www.cbc.ca/theborder/watch.html
Has anyone else had trouble watching this? ... I get a message saying
"this content is currently unavailable." <<
I'm having the same problem. I'll bet after episode 2 airs.. episode 1
will be viewable. Either that or CBC needs more bandwidth

I just tried it now (Sat. Jan 12 6:55pm ET) and, although it wouldn't work
with my Netscape browser, it did work with IE. Unfortunately with the
buffering necessary with my 100 Mbps dsl connection it is loading so unevenly
that it's not watchable. Luckily I DO get the CBC so I'm not forced to try to
use the online site.

I watched it online Tuesday, the day after it aired with no problems. Just now
checked it, and it streams ok for me.
I used: Firefox (latest version), with high-speed internet connection. Those
having problems may not have the necessary plug-ins - ActiveX and Flash are
usually needed.
I recommend trying the Games. The first one is an interrogation, and there are
more - each one leads to the next.

Or, CBC, like the BBC, has the ability to identify 'foreign' IP addresses. I'm
sure someone will post this to YouTube in a few days.

I was able to watch it Tuesday as well, using Netscape. Unfortunately, I
didn't have the time to watch all of it. But when I tried over the last few
days, I too get the "this content is unavailable" message.
My guess is either there are bandwith problems or some IPs are being blocked
in light of a jump in viewership outside of Canada.
