Comparison

These were captured while the storm chasers were driving.

As you can see, the feed hosted by Ustream (www.ustream.tv) is very blocky and "pixelated". In comparison, the SevereStreaming feed is much clearer.

SevereStreaming's Windows Media stream quality beats Flash-based streaming when uploading on low bandwidth (such as on a cellular internet card). So, clear up YOUR stream by signing up with us today!

Clip from KAIT in Jonesboro, AR during the tornado outbreak on May 2, 2008.


Ryan Vaughan and his crew were watching the live stream off to the side while covering the Earle, AR tornado.

At the time KAIT did not have a licensing agreement to take the video feed live to air, but were still watching the feed to give play-by-play to their viewers of what was happening on Brett Adair's stream.

Here's what was being seen on Brett's stream as KAIT was watching:

"You folks are really on to something here! I've often thought of streaming footage of my chases and considered implementing it, but it always seemed too daunting and time consuming. However your service has taken all the hassle and difficulty out of it. Thanks for being there for the Chaser community. This is an excellent service!
