Abstract
The invention relates generally to a system and methods for streaming broadcast event, and more particularly to a system and methods for distributing one or more commentary streams corresponding to the broadcast event. The system may be configured to receive, via an interface, a search request and, in response to the search request, present one or more broadcast streams, such as a live and/or recorded poker tournaments, eSports events, and the like. In response to detecting a selection of a broadcast stream, the system may obtain one or more associated commentary streams, which are prepared by a registered commentator and include audio and/or video. The system may then distribute a list of the associated commentary streams in a region of the user display. Advantageously, the list of commentary streams may provide a user with multiple points of view such as commentary specific for a home team and an away team.
