World Cup internet radio ?

I've given up trying to use web proxies to fool the BBC that my IP is from the UK, so I cannot watch the live TV on the BBC site.

But what really f**ks me off is that the same deal goes for Radio Five Live. They just give you a "tough s**t" message if you are not in the UK.

I cannot believe that the BBC is the only organisation in the world which has the rights to broadcast live radio commentary of the World Cup games, and then restricts it to the UK.

So does anybody know of any other sites which are providing this ? As for language, obviously English is by far the preferred one, and Dutch (while a longshot) would also be fine, but I'm desperate enough to also go for a French or German language station if they are the only ones available.

Don't speak Spanish, Italian or that click African language so only the above are useful for me I'm afraid.

Any ideas anyone ?
