This insatiable greed just boggles the mind … so much revenue is generated by advertising, endorsements and the like … one would think the powers that be would stfu and gladly support ANY medium that offers FREE exposure. Fans are generally very supportive of their favorite teams, sports figures, etc. … BILLIONS are spent every year on merchandise and a whole slew of other useless items … and of course, each fan is a potential walking billboard … instead of conducting these witch hunts, the greedy bastards should show a little more appreciation to the millions of dedicated supporters who built their empires. Case closed.

I guess justin.tv is gonna lose a lot of traffic. It seems like 90% of their streams are ppv sports, movies, and tv.

they failed at stopping the wrestle mania streams and they will fail at everything else. when one stream goes down another goes up and everyone in the room tells the other where the next stream is .

All you need to do is set your stream channel to private, then create an embed through a linking site. Once that is done, the odds of having your stream shutdown drop dramatically.

Fine, bring the streams down, but in return BROADCAST EVERYTHING IN OUR COUNTRIES!!!!!! How the hell are we suppose to follow our teams without streaming? When they’re not even broadcasted on TV here?
Greedy idiots.

there’s too much money in sports, and they doesn’t give anything back, it’s just old roman “bread & games” to keep you from reclaiming your freedoms

I pay for a season ticket to aston villa in EPL i go to all the home games and as many of the away games as i can but cant get to all. My reason for watchin these streams is that skysports and sultana sports choose other games which leaves me having to watch it on a channel from another country like china

WWE went after Justin.tv and other sites hard during Wrestlemania. Streams were being shut down due to Copyright claims left and right.

I paid for a PPV boxing match.
When it came on the ruskie boxer backed out of the match at the last minute.

So I was left holding the bag for this over priced rip off.

And no refund was offered after calling my provider.

Needless to say this was the last PPV event I ever bothered with.

I’ve often wondered what the hell would warrant the stupid sums of money that these meat heads make. OK so you can make a ball go into a hole, and you can do it really really well, but is this worth millions?
