I'm having similar issues so I will post my experience here:
Lag Started about 2 weeks into the JTV switch for me. Initially it was fine but in the last few weeks its been getting worse. It lasts for a few seconds and then the stream resumes as normal. But the lag occurs every 4 or 5 minutes for about 10 seconds or so. Often, it happens more often when there is a lot of movement on screen. So game starts, it runs fine, you sitting there talking runs fine. When there are a lot of units it starts to freeze and unfreeze. Furthermore the problem also occurs when your muppetmaster decides to animate your movements.
Its worse on your more popular mondays and tuesdays so I feel it may be related to traffic but it happens most days regardless of topic.
I think the best way to describe it is in its similarity to the lag many of us experience during the NASL after the IPL is over. The large number of viewers just seems to cause a lot of skipping so I fear that it is the result of JTV and its servers in some way.
Note to others: Please post a respons about any lag you are experiencing in an effort to get Day 9 to help us out since hes nice enough to check the thread once in a while. I know for me its getting to the point where the video will freeze and the audio will continue and at times lag is unbearable to really get an enjoyable viewing experience so I have to watch the VODs on Blip instead of watching the daily live unfortunately.

This seems to be the exact same problem I have been having as well. Lowering the stream quality doesn't help much either in my experience. It seems to have 10 or 20 second chunks where it lags, then the stream skips badly once or twice afterwards to catch up if you don't refresh. I only started noticing it after the switch to JTV but I can't say for certain that was when it started.
But with only credit card payment available there is just no way for me to do it
