Comparison

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 any Flash-based streaming on low bandwidth (like uploading from a cellular internet card). Clear up your stream by signing up with SevereStreaming today!

SevereStreaming technology is being used by leading storm chasers, media groups, the National Weather Service and more. Here is what some are saying about us:

"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!
