Incredible actually. All the 3D misalignment and texture ripping will only get better. I 1000% rather have this than not be able to watch it all due to licensing restrictions. My only fear is that after all of this technological innovation, licensing law gets rewritten to ban this as well.

I've seen this before -- with football and basketball -- and I don't care or it. In fact I find it really revolting. I read the article. Is the point that now I can watch the Australian Open on Youtube? If it looks like this, I don't want to! But maybe I'm still missing the point? Care to explain?

Sure. This is due to licensing restrictions. The alternative would be not being able to watch an event and only listen to the audio broadcast. But with this you have a 3D “realtime” (2 minutes delay for the processing) representation of the entire event.

Just because you can read a headline, doesn’t mean you know what the article and the tech the headline is referencing is about.
