WWE Fighting Illegal Stream Sites

World Wrestling Entertainment is well aware of websites such as Justin.TV streaming pay-per-view broadcasts for free in real time and have been much more adamant in recent months in shutting down the feeds. During any one pay-per-view event, a multitude of live streams can be found on Justin.TV, some of which attracting upwards of 500,000 visitors. In response, WWE now has their legal team scouring the website during live shows for feeds in hopes of squashing as many as they can. According to one source, they are taking the same approach to these sites that feature WWE copyrighted material being posted on YouTube.

   Perhaps they should offer it on the internet, but they should charge for it.

   It's perfectly their right to do so.
   
   Mind you, I stream myself and given the choice between paying and not watching at all I wouldn't watch.
