CNN broadcasting online free? Hogging my bandwidth...
I noticed my bandwidth graphs were a little out of whack tonight and after much digging through pcap files I found that my chrome tab with 'cnn.com' had a live stream of cnn playing on the right side halfway down. It seems this started around 8am this morning and it was a macromedia tcp flash stream on port 1935. Did they decide to give free CNN to everyone today? Or is this a goof? Either way it chewed up a lot of my bandwidth which doesn't come cheap here in Canada, eh? Also, sometimes it says: Watch CNN will resume momentarily on the feed but it's still pushing traffic. What a pain! Turning off the 'free' Piers Morgan feed now... - Zachary

I'm seeing the same thing, too, but it appears to be video-only...no accompanying audio. -- Nathan
