    Wiziwig

    I've just had a look on wiziwig to see if the Southport game is on live streaming and got the following message. 'Today is a sad day for all live streaming fans as wiziwig is being forced to close due to new laws in Spain which start today.
    Wiziwig run the risk of being fined up to E600,000 so have decided to close. Looks like Sky, Prem, the FA and other leagues have forced this. Spoil Sports

    re: Wiziwig

    Today is a sad day for all fans of live sports streaming, as we at Wiziwig have to announce that we’re forced to close our website, at least for now. This due to new laws in Spain which will get into force starting tomorrow, the 1st January 2015. Failing to comply with the new reform puts us at risks of fines being as high as € 600.000,- and also losing our domain, hosting and other necessary stuff to operate wiziwig.

    We’ve chosen to operate from Spain, as several higher court cases there have declared linking to be legal. This has given us the opportunity to run wiziwig for 3 years. Nevertheless it hasn’t been easy to operate as since we’ve started we’ve been facing a lot of pressure, like fake claims of being unlawfull, being pirates, pressure on hosting, advertising and much more.

    Main threat has been the English Premier League, who’ve tried literally anything to shut our website down, to cease our revenues, spread false accusations and who has constantly been chasing us down. Nee

    Yes a big shame as always the first point of call for streaming. On a pos there's always alternatives and thanks for the ones you've posted. Watched the spurs v chelsea on "drakula stream" yesterday which had several options.
    What can you do?
