Over the next 19 days, athletes from all over the world will compete in the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics, making up thousands of hours of programming for you to binge.

We’ve put together a guide of how to watch the games, and don’t worry, cord-cutters. You can still take in the action, and if you’re really ambitious, check it out in virtual reality.

How to watch without cable:

The easiest way to tune into the games without a cable subscription is definitely to borrow a login from a generous friend or family member. But if that isn’t possible, you can easily watch by doing a little digital border hopping. If you have friends who brag about watching cool shows only available on British Netflix, this is how they do it.

All you have to do is download a virtual private network (VPN) extension for your browser, which will allow you to visit another country’s broadcasting website (BBC, for example) by tricking it into thinking you’re visiting from within. Hola, MediaHint and ZenMate are popular choices you can use with Chrome or Firefox. Simply click on the link of the one you want, click download, run the installation and you’ll be set. Most have free versions or free trials, so you should be able to watch the games without buying an expensive VPN. Here’s a list of the networks broadcasting the games around the world.

Also, if you’re a Playstation Vue user, you can use those credentials to login to the NBC Sports app.

How to watch with cable:

The reason you can’t easily watch the Olympics without a cable subscription is because NBC pays a whole lot of money to hold exclusive broadcast rights. If you still have cable, however, the games will be easy to watch. NBC will present 2,084 hours of games across 11 networks on broadcast TV and 4,500 hours that can be livestreamed on NBCOlympics.com and the NBC Sports app. The full streaming schedule is available after your sign in with your cable provider.
