It did work for LCS, but it didn't work for FXO streams.

Wow ... what a smart answer. Ustream and Justin did exist side by side before twitch AND we were watching on both of them. It "will not happen" only because Blizzard says so and because any worldwide competition to twitch is kinda dead. That is bad, but it is a manmade problem and not a "universal constant that can not be changed".

I would never doubt you. I don´t watch LCS, but do they play music inbetween? Because with TaKe´s playlist in breaks, there is no way, GEMA would not shut the stream down nearly immediatly.

ah this works

I will be sad if the B-stream countdown ends and nothing happens
