Stickam enters mobile streaming space, iPhone client coming


Live video streaming service Stickam has entered the mobile phone streaming spacing, launching a dedicated mobile client.

The initial release sees support only for the Nokia N95 and N96, but the company is working on an iPhone client for future release.

The move takes Stickam into new territory in a competitive space. On the live streaming side, Stickam competes with Justin.tv, Ustream.tv, Mogolus, Yahoo Live and others, in mobile streaming the market so far have been divided between Flixwagon and Qik. The move offers growth opportunities for Stickam by entering a space not yet targeted by its main competitors, although given the mobile streaming market is still limited by technology and regular use, the move may see an increase in content created by existing members than attract new ones.

Streams featured on Stickam’s home page generate more than 40,000 live views each hour of broadcast. Stickam.com has more than 2 million registered users, and receives more than 2.5 million unique monthly visitors and 4.8 million daily page views.

    Hi,

    I am VP Marketing for Livecast, we were the first to broadcast live video from a cell phone (2005) and have been primarily in the enterprise/broadcast space. We will soon be coming out with a new portal and consumer offering, though right now any of your readers can use Livecast free (go to http://www.livecast.com and just “Sign Up).

    We are glad this whole mobile live video space is expanding with new players, the whole segment is still very small, we'd love to know what your readers think of Livecast.

    Thanks

    stickam's flash client for windows is grossly unstable and crashes regularly and frequently (measured in minutes). apple will never approve such unstable and inferior code for their appstore

    Shut up mac fag, microsoft didn't create flash so don't act like you know shit the reason your flash crashes is probably because you're an idiot who runs out your memory. I love microsoft and apple but you're just ignorant. So many sites have flash on them so think about it, is it flash that sucks or just you?
