ESPN has picked up the rights for the entire Americas. Other than USA and Canada, you can now watch Bundesliga games through either ESPN+ or ESPN3. One thing I noticed is when the feed is not available in HD, they'll switch to ESPN+.

Now Pokal games are a bit different matter. Some Bayern Pokal games have been aired by ESPN3 before (HD and SD,) but this year DirecTV seems to have the rights. Confirmation pending.

In the US and Canada GolTV still has Bundesliga's main rights, and will let ESPN broadcast some games. Bad news is GolTV is only available through DirecTV in most States. Even then, their HD feed needs an special package. You can always opt to check if ESPN3 is internet-feeding it even if you have other carriers.

Please post corrections to this post if case be and if you don't mind please do include your market.

Then again, you can always go the Dish route...

Anyways espn 3 usually shows bayern games, but only against bigger teams. they rarely show when they play low table teams. so i missed the first game of the season and was a bit sad i realize there are streams but they are only live and that would require me to get up at 4 or 5 in the morning to watch bayern smash some small team, not really worth losing sleep over imo. anyone know of a site or whatever that shows replay matches or where i can download them? that would be fantastic.

thanks in advance,
Bryan

You can download matches from match-downloads-f14/

The game is 11:30 EST in America on Gol TV and the broadcasting rights for the Bundesliga run through the 2014-2015 season

So, those guys removed the channel that has Mad Men. Soon GOL TV... One day, they might just ask people to pay for the service without offering any content

Luckily Eurosport 2 has the Bundesliga coverage and shows most Bayern matches live.

In Europe its easy but in the US u kinda have to go "above and beyond" to get Bayern games....

I think it's easier with quality streams nowadays. I found a stream of 1500 kb/s yesterday in case I couldn't watch in on the tv.

Yea thats true but i mostly meant finding them live on tv is almost impossible without a little research
