Don't know that hacking was needed...I think the unencrypted live feed was intercepted by an amateur satellite enthusiast...
That's right, somebody with a satellite dish found the wild feed that the BBC was using to send the whole show from the site back to their studio's in London...he also found full shows from a few other bands who only had parts of their shows broadcast.Quote

I remember reading on Dime that it got sent via a satellite on 24°...dunno if it even exists. What's weird is that raw feed was apparently in SD and the show got broadcast in HD and looked great so it must have been upscaled with expensive equipment at the BBC HQ...I suppose it's cheaper to uplink SD than HD too.

Here you can find the Glastonbury full show (2h:16min) MPEG-2 Satellite feed
You can convert it e.g. with HandBrake and then play it on PC or Mac with the VLC-Player or on a Tablet or Smartphone if you have used the appropriate settings in HandBrake.
See here for hints for the chroma subsampling 4:2:2 if you want to play the file without converting to MP4: [www.iorr.org]
