Even once you find the thing you want to watch, actually watching it on NBC streaming has been a miserable experience. Moving the mouse anywhere over the entire broadcast window brings up video controls along the bottom of the screen, which take 5+ seconds to fade after you stop moving. These controls are very opaque, and obscure the bottom 10th or so of the video. This tends to block things like athlete names/countries, timers, scores, etc. Ads play, but do not pause the underlying broadcast. They will interrupt commentators mid-sentence, and will return to the broadcast in the middle of actual competition (for example, they might try to sneak an ad in between Badminton points, but the ad is longer than the intra-point break).
