Ustream continues to attempt explaining the Hugo Awards stream blackout 

http://j.mp/RhrLMq  (Ustream)

   "This occurred because our 3rd party automated infringement system,
    Vobile, detected content in the stream that it deemed to be
    copyrighted. Vobile is a system that rights holders upload their
    content for review on many video sites around the web.  The video
    clips shown prior to Neil's speech automatically triggered the 3rd
    party system at the behest of the copyright holder."

Most of the folks commenting on their posting are not very happy.
