And guess what, your advertisers will LOVE you! Why? Because as a streamer, you have automatic statistics on how many viewers, time of day, and length of watching.
Advertisers have been pushing for the 'down to the second' stats for a while now. And the hold up isn't the content providers, its the end-user distributors. Cable and sat companies have had the potential to provide this level of information for some time now (and the truth is most peeps would have no problem with the stats collection), but they and the broadcasters have been pushing off 'electoric neilson' devices for years now because they don't want the advertisers to have hard proof of what everyone already suspects: People aren't watching as much TV as they used to, they're off on the Net or in their game consoles or (heaven forbid) doing rather healthier things outdoors.
Apparently, someone isn't reading their software licenses. In most cases that I've seen, the only thing warranted is the media on which the software ships. I suppose if you downloaded it, this would me that the.zip file is at least intact.

That didn't pan out either.

Virgin Orbit sounds more likely in the near term.
*Who* likes having John Ashcroft as AG? And why?

Give SciFi a reason to stop making the sub-B garbage they're constantly spewing out and stick with what works.

Excuse me, I must vomit now.
