... So where you watched those old Battlestar Galactica episodes today might not have the content half way through you watching them. And despite some success in recent experiments run, this is also a huge problem when it comes to watching live sports.

With sports, the public not only has to contend with a convoluted and fractured streaming environment, but also with one-off games being streamed on platforms they otherwise don't appear on as well as the additional factor of deals that teams and leagues have with regional sports networks. As an example, take the Chicago Cubs. Most of their games appear on the team's dedicated RSN, the Marquee Network. But some of their games are also part of national broadcasts on ESPN or Fox. And a couple stream exclusively on Apple. Where will you find the game on any particular day? Get your pipe and funny hat out, because you have to cosplay as Sherlock Holmes to get your answer.

Now, we could all recognize this problem and come up with a better way to provide live sports streaming so that there is no confusion.

But since we're apparently not going to do that, ESPN has instead developed an app to treat the symptom rather than the underlying disease.

Launching today on ESPN.com and the various ESPN mobile and streaming device apps, the new guide offers various views, including one that lists all the sporting events in a single day and a search function, among other things. You can also flag favorite sports or teams to customize those views.
