Streams (including Mikogo, TeamViewer, etc.) - technical aspects.

Today's stream on SC2TV has already gathered 1200 viewers online :)

I saw 1.5k viewers at Calababa's stream once. The number of viewers depends on the hosting platform (own3d, justin, etc.), on advertising – like SC2TV, there's Vodportal, and something else, and on the stream quality.

And how do you get permission to stream on SC2TV?

There used to be a "Commentators Factory" – I saw announcements about it often, but I haven't seen any for about 2 weeks now. You need to send a link to your video; if they like it, you can place your stream in the fan streams. If the stream quality is really good, you can get into the regular Streams.

So, if a person watches for 10 seconds, they are also counted as a viewer?

On Justin.tv, that's definitely not the case; I don't know how it is on other hosting platforms.

I think there would be a lot of interest, the audience is huge, how much money can be earned on advertising during breaks in a 3-4 hour stream?

As far as I know, that's how they earn money on Starcraft streams, but the audience there is 5k+
