Is this site legal?

Hi everyone. I came across this site today when i was looking for a place to watch the packers and bears game online because they didnt show it here. I was wondering if this site was legal or not. I was watching the FOX Chicago network. If it is how profitable would it be to make something like this and have free feeds of the game that might lag a little bit and have a paid membership feed as well to watch t with no lag and in HD. Here is the website. Thanks everyone.

That site is more for life casters and live streaming, however some people do broadcast TV channels or PPV sporting events. The site itself is legal however the channels that broadcast copyrighted material aren't and will often be shutdown when a mod sees it.

It is probably not legal, although it get's harder and harder to tell with these video mashup sites - the question is where he ultimately sources his feeds from (plenty of major content providers do offer embedded feeds), but I am guessing that a lot of those feeds are decidedly "off the books".

If you get good hosting from a company that isn't going to shut you down before talking to you, and set up a site like that, but in such a way as to give the perceptions that the feeds are provided by third parties, you can probably get away with it. Just kill a feed if you get a complaint about that feed.

Still, if it got very big at all, it would only be a matter of time until someone with deep pockets decided to try to sue you into shutting down (or worse). I'd advise partnering with a lawyer if you want to get into that line of business.

I guess its a no go than. I was just wondering about it trying to come up with something new. Thanks guys.
