Hello all,

@ Talo, no it is free, same as the last one. The event promoter asked me about the charges, there was no charge for it and if you paid $10 it sure did not go into my pocket. The stream did not work at that event as I was broadcasting off if my iPad on the ustream app. When it didn't work, I looked into the matter further and it turns out the app works on iPhones, but crashes on iPads. Hence why I have switched to a different streaming site. For those mistaken, here is the support email I received from the ustream team after I heard the rumor I was charging for the show:

Hi Kaevon,

It is quite clear the the username bellsofsteel is not whitelisted for PPV
broadcasting, as well as there is not Schedule PPV Event button in your
account. How you decide to prove that your channel is not PPV is up to you, as
I cannot get involved in such a matter as I am an employee of Ustream. But, I
can tell you that your account is certainly not a PPV account.

Chester

@musulphreak yes it's a free broadcast.
