With just a computer, a web cam and an Internet connection, anyone can broadcast high quality video for free, making Justin.tv the ultimate destination site for viewing the most compelling and entertaining live content from around the world.
"Clip-based video serves a purpose, but it is limiting and today's Internet generation is always striving for more freedom," said Justin Kan, co-founder of Justin.tv. "Justin.tv takes online video to the next level by giving people a live interactive stage to speak to the world."
"Justin.tv is democratizing live video. Before today, the power to broadcast live was reserved for major news networks and large corporations. Justin.tv now gives the average person access to this influential medium," said Michael Seibel, co-founder and CEO of Justin.tv. "Justin.tv is opening the world and giving people the opportunity to share experiences in real time. You no longer need to imagine what it would be like to witness the protests in Myanmar, camp out at Burning Man or even spend a day in the life of your favorite movie star"
