I too would like to know why the Hugo Awards Ceremony was shut down.

Being silent isn't going to make this issue go away, Ustream.

  It's a good start, but I'd still like to watch the recording to see the other acceptance speechees.

The fact that Mr. Hunstable has shut down Vobile until it can be recalibrated does demonstrate that he might indeed be serious about fair use. Let's hope Ustream gets back on the right trail. Lately, I haven't found much to like here.
