VH1.com lists "Live 8" from Noon to 8PM ET.
MTV2 will not be broadcasting the concerts.
If they start airing at Noon ET that basically means they will start the broadcast about halfway through the London show. Then will probably get cut off sometime before the Philly show ends. The two shows together will be like 14 hours long somehow compressed into 8 hours on U.S. TV I guess.
So looks like we're going to get a "highlights" type of broadcast in the U.S. rather then the entire London concert. Really would like to see the WHOLE THING on some channel.

Also on radio 3FM...
Meghan said:It really hurts to say this but...... Although I would REALLY like to see 3 hours straight of U2, *deep breath* not everyone would. And this event is supposed to raise money for a very worthy cause, and more people are gonna donate more if they see their favourite band there, so the more bands they can squeeze in, the better because then you'll get all the fans of all the bands phoning in (or whatever they're meant to do) and donating their cash.
And even if it means squeezing U2 into 15 lousy minutes, it will be worth it for the cause.
Did that make sense? Oh well, it did to me anyways.....

Then I can put it up on my website
Failing that it will be up on Sunday morning
I should also have a sweet FM recording of the entire thing from my other PC if Radio 1 broadcast all the performances from Hyde Park and Philly
