Does three streams x 2 minutes = six minutes of viewing or is it really just two? There's also an option to download video from NBC. How are the video downloads being counted? Once a file with 30 minutes of footage is downloaded, do they automatically assume all 30 minutes have been watched? That said, I'm really looking forward to having some more details about viewership.
