Olympics London

I've not been able to see much of the Olympic games from what I have seen the judging can be very unfair at times. We are in 2012 with lots of technology - why are we still relying on the slow sight of a judge to determine if a ball went over a line or not? A camera can capture everything and play it back instantly so you can know for sure. I am particularly referring to the Brazil vs. Korea Women's Volleyball match.
