Everything will be through NBC (and their family of networks, but everything will be at least streamed online which needs a tv subscription). FloVolleyball doesn't have any rights (I dont think they own any current volleyball rights anyways, well to professional indoor volleyball) There are a few options for streaming. Youtube TV: $65/month Hulu Live: $65 Fubo: $65 Sling Blue: $35 AT&T: $70 All of these should get you NBCSN and access to NBC's online streaming. (I just checked and volleyball will only be on NBCSN and online. You won't need peacock) Edit: Beach Volleyball will need CNBC. That's covered by the major streaming services. It is a $6 add on to Sling Blue.) Sling is running a $10 promotion right now for Sling Blue (for a month, be sure to cancel after) Just signed up for Sling Blue. They seem to have a good set up to be able to watch some non-USA matches as well. Pavan & H-P tonight at 11pm EST.

Also just to note, NBC and CNBC aren't on Sling Blue. You can get NBC on Puffer (Stanford based research project, Free and completely legal) puffer.stanford.edu/player/CNBC matches will need an extra package on Sling (or another stream site)

Do you know if CNBC has more non-USA matches?

So if I get the Sling Blue trial, I can just use the NBC schedule links and watch the volleyball on my laptop?

I remember last Olympics, on Spectrum, they had an Olympics on Demand channel - does anyone know if that will be available.
For all the other matches, would subscribing to Peacocktv be the best option to access Olympic volleyball content? - will it give me access to nbcolympics.com matches? It seems like they have all the matches on there. And if anyone knows about Peacock - should we get plus or premium (will premium allow us to watch matches live?). I would say that would be the best bet - as you would just have to drop $10 if you can get Olympic volleyball access streaming.
Or is Sling Blue the better way to go? I'm guessing your cable provider would be Sling TV?
I just want to watch on the computer (for now).

When I tried to stream stuff through the NBC Olympics website, it asked for a TV provider login. I think that Peacock is mostly just acting as a separate channel in terms of live Olympics coverage, and it'll have some stuff available for free but some stuff you have to pay for (I think just basketball and gymnastics). I don't know if paying for Peacock at either tier will get you access to all of the live streams.
I personally decided to get YoutubeTV for the month. A little pricier than Sling but I've used it in the past and I like the interface/DVR/channel lineup. I'll probably also pay for the $10 Peacock at some point, but I haven't needed it yet.
