Every year they stream most of the mainstage acts online on the Download website. Not all are shown though. a Keep an eye on the website in the next week or so for more info.

yeh, last year it streamed on the official website.

 

quality was pretty good too (sound is perfect), me and my housemate took a tv out in the garden hooked it upto speakers and the laptop and had our own little download festival out in the sun, it was f'n awesome.

 

they didn't show everything though, i remember Marilyn Manson and most of the final day's acts weren't shown...for some kind of legal reasons.

 

Planning on doing the same next weekend.

They're not streaming it this year as apparently it ended up costing them loads when they did it in 2009. They've said there'll be 2 or 3 programmes on Sky Arts1 that'll show performances from over the weekend.

Re: Sky Arts....had a look at the listings and it appears Download is being shafted in favour of the IoW fest. Can't find any listing for a DL highlight show. Radio 1 are gonna be there so would assume something from them. Apart from that, nothing until Scuzz, Kerrang and Channel 4 sort their highlights out.
