Why does this get voted down? This what a lot of people used JTV for and it was a great service!


The reason they closed down your "cable TV service" was largely because it was your "cable TV service". Compared to twitch that website must have been an absolute nightmare to run.

Because Justin.tv wasn't for cable TV broadcasting. It was for generic streaming. Those who were streaming TV and whatnot were doing so illegally.
