I don't own or use anything that is allowed to view this, but I would still like to. I really wish Apple would change their attitude toward non-Apple users.

It's not about allowed device. It's about supported technology. Apple went all-in on HTTP live streaming, everything they make supports it, and everything they stream uses it. VLC supports it. I think silverlight does too, if you want to whip up your own player in a dead technology.

Yes, well it turns out that Apple lied, and you can in fact watch the stream on non-Apple hardware.

Yes, 100% seriously. They said that you can't watch the stream on non-Apple hardware, and it turns out that is completely untrue. Why is it in any way controversial for me to point this out?
