Despite our various arguments over features (missing or wanted) and the legality of ignoring Hulu's policy (and agreement, not low, about the *use* of their service since nothing they deliver is their property), the StreamTransport site has been taken down. iPower, their webhost provider, has suspended their account. If you go to their web site, you will get: This site has been suspended If you manage this site and have a question about why the site is not available, please contact us directly. They had just fixed the DPI bug that I reported. I don't know how they fixed it (by adding a context menu to the list of stream sources or by making a DPI-aware program). Although they pointed at a RapidShare download for their new beta, I found their web site was dead. iPower doesn't state why they suspended the site. That's for them and StreamTransport to argue over. If iPower thinks StreamTransport is proffering software that violates their terms, they'll probably not change their opinion regardless of how StreamTransport attempts to validate themself. As has been mentioned, regardless of how we users will dictate how content is delivered to our hosts despite Hulu's threat by policy, iPower wouldn't care and would simply see StreamTransport as a means of violating another site's policy. I'll wait until StreamTransport gets their site back up or finds another webhost provider that won't terminate their account. For now, their separate site for forums (http://www.rtmpe.com/) still exists.
