Live U has negotiated long term contracts with higher data rates and caps and is renting those contracts to you on a monthly or yearly basis. Im sure they did some serious math to come up with that 30 hours rates.

This stuff is amazing, truly game changing. You can use this almost anywhere in the US. You might not always get HD bandwidth in remote areas but even if each card is only getting 100k up, 6 of them together gets you 600k up which is enough for standard broadcast quality.]]>Sep 30th 2009 6:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 8:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 9:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 10:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 5:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 5:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/

Good idea, just way, way too much money, especially when I already invested in other equipment to do the job...]]>Sep 30th 2009 6:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/
The free service limits you to a 500k stream. In Justin tv, there's no limit to what bitrate you want to set it to. Also, you could actually moderate the chat in Justin tv. In livestream, you could ban someone from chat, but they could just clear their cookies and spam again. It was livestream's unusable chat that forced me to find another service]]>Sep 30th 2009 6:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Nov 11th 2009 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 9:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 7:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 7:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/
The big guys (national news) have huge dishes that do upload to space satellites then back down to their station.

For everyone else yes a laptop and a single 3g card with an antenna and a bit of luck you can push 700k upload and get a pretty good looking broadcast.... but thats assuming EVERYTHING goes right. i cant tell you how many times we have gone somewhere with shitty coverage and had to deal with AWFUL delay and buffer times.

Even with 4g and LTE you are still totally at the mercy of that particular carriers coverage and congestion. ]]>Sep 30th 2009 6:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/Sep 30th 2009 6:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/livestream-livepack-a-satellite-television-truck-in-a-backpack/
