This morning Live Video had two hard core LIVE shows running for about 5 hours. Pretty hard stuff too.

Not so fast; LiveVideo allows users to archive shows? If there’s a button or a setting to do that, I’m too stupid to find it. I can see a “My Archives” section of my channel, but I have yet to see any of my streams show up there, and there’s no obvious way to control whether and when anything would be archived anyway.

LiveVideo totally rocks and they have an awesome coding team, combined with great deals with multinationals like Adidas having their own livevideo platform.

If only Greenspan wouldn’t have cocked up that many other smaller platforms he acquired. I fear for what might happen to Revver (read: no time for Revver: he will take the ‘brighter’ revver people and integrate them in his team. After a while Revver itself will be pushed off again. Standard LiveUniverse practices)

Still, LV rocks as a platform and could combine both the YouTube popularity (on a smaller scale) with the BrightCove quality and professional broadcasters if they really wanted to.

I think I still prefer Yahoo Live. Plus, with Yahoo Live I can set my channel as private. I would however love the ability to record, but it’s still in experimental release and has a lot of bugs to work out. LiveVideo looks a little too myspacey and doesn’t have great picture quality. Both will be fun to watch to see what they grow into. Either way, hopefully it’s getting webcams some more usage in the mainstream future.

I gotta say, it does share the same awkward and confusing design of myspace (though, to their credit, myspace is getting incrementally better). Perhaps there’s a little bias on my part, but I gotta say, I’m still most satisfied with Stickam ( http://www.stickam.com/ ) as a casual webcam site. They don’t have the best visual design either, but relative to the rest, they come out on top.

Wow once again another article about Live streaming and not a mention of Stickam.com at all. “video conferencing Yahoo Live style, in that users can add other streaming users to their page and interact with them” I.E. having guest video was done by Stickam first. Its strange it took yahoo and such so long to add it as its probably one of the reasons Stickam is still the #1 live streaming site…

What impressed me with this is that it’s like Yahoo Live, but with the ability to record, one of the most valued features on live streaming services

Yahoo Live does mutliple live videos on the one screen, and pretty much nothing else aside from chat. What impressed me with this is that it’s like Yahoo Live, but with the ability to record, one of the most valued features on live streaming services (least among the people into Live Streaming I’ve spoken to).

I really don’t see what makes this better than yahoo live. It really feels to me like a crappy version of youtube.

LiveVideo had a liveshow featuring Steve Nash and it was really cool!

Yes, Confirmed, LiveUniverse purchased Revver for a 500K which paid off some debt equity and made the investors somewhat happy. In addition Greenspan made the deal mostly an equity play. Still no word how easy this merge is going to go. Revver already had to lay off 25 people and more on the way as they outsource much of the work to consultants.

Revver was in a bad situation, and they acquired it for a bargain.

They are rolling up a few other properties in to the network. Watch out for some more acquisitions coming from Greenspan in the near future.

Greenspan and Rosenblatt also have a hate hate relationship, so, watch for competing offers from Demand Media & Live Universe on the acquisition of content portals

This is going to be fun to watch

Yes – I saw that LiveUniverse bought Revver – so they must be pretty big now with all these video properties

Livevideo.com = Soft Porn

they got their initial traffic with half naked chics …

No real future for this company

livevideo sucks. 99% of their traffic is driven from their huge porn sites like yourfilehost.com and flurl.com.

I heard that the group behind this is pretty messed up. Founded myspace? Like that’s something to be proud of. It’s like crap generating crap. @5 is right, it this site does have a Myspace feel to it.

No wonder the site’s design has so much MySpace-style feel to it.
