    I'd ad an option for Bambuser. No pre roll over there. BlogTV STILL doesn't support 16:9 so not a fan of them. It won't even letterbox a 16:9 stream, it just stretches it.

    No idea how many users it has, but it's definitely great as a free cdn with no ads.

    I have been looking for another streaming site for some time. I thought it was going to be livestream but they have way too many restrictions for free users

    i love Justin.tv I think they're great. There's another website called Vaughn Live which opened up not to long ago. They're not horribly popular yet, but the owner of the site runs it like his personal playground instead of a like a business, so I see no future there. Justin is my primary broadcasting site, I think it offers the best features and is easiest to use, but then again I'm biased, I've been on there since 2008 (as a viewer).

    We use Bambuser. We used to use Ustream but their untimely mid roll ads makes it unusable. yesterday was the first time that I saw a pre roll ad on Bambuser though, so things may change. Trying to figure out how to use Veetle.
