Is there a way to watch the Michael Jackson memorial AFTER it's over, online?

Stuck in a work meeting alllllllllll morning, no way to watch it live. Does anyone know of a way I can watch it online later?

I suspect that Staples Center (which is live streaming the event) will post video after the event.

CNN.com indicates that they will have "replays at 4:00 p.m. ET and 7:00 p.m. ET."

I'd also check at MSNBC.com for possible replays.

Here is a list of sites where you can watch it live. I would assume that at least one will have it available to watch after its over.

It's playing live on Hulu now. Based on past experience, they will archive this for at least a week, probably more. They did this with the presidential inauguration.

youtube.com?

You can check the links on this Download Squad page. Right now, it has listings of live streams of the memorial, although perhaps the same sites will leave the video up for viewing.

MSNBC.com has the full service available here (1 hour; 17 minutes).

Staples Center is replaying it on a loop.

My mistake. It's 2 hours; 57 minutes.

BTW -- if at least one of these clips don't get you misty, you're due for some "emotional readjustment" back at the shop: Paris Jackson || Brooke Shields || Usher.

I was also strangely touched by John Mayer's guitar solo of Human Nature. YMMV.

You probably already have the whole thing, but just in case someone is still looking, here's a playlist on YouTube that has clips (that are actually out of order, so that isn't the best way to see it for the first time). Anyway, it was a beautiful, incredibly touching memorial.
