I have been livestreaming for 4-5 years and currently do 2-4 streams/week. Started with Blue Jeans, then switched over to BeLive and after to StreamYard (pay $49/month there).

Streamyard alternative for $99 for a lifetime plan? Absolutely Yes!!

In essence, it is very very similar to StreamYard, except you can do a few things with less clicks at StreamYard (quickly changing overlays, banners, tickers).

Did a test stream today, and my guest (a regular) was surprised to see that he was able to join the stream from his home laptop and the frames never froze. :D In the very beginning he was very sceptical (we both love StreamYard, and have tested many livestreaming solutions), and in the end also approved Melon :)

Scheduling a stream was super easy for me as well :)

Also, in Melon you can set up the intro and outro videos that start automatically. And Play with colours :) Huge Plus :)

Oh, almost forgot > finally there is a solution that offers to choose a YouTube and Twitch category for your livestream.

Very very nice product, indeed :)

Ok, possible cons. Although YouTube went in 1080p, our FB stream is 720p only.. hmmm.. I will look into this, maybe I have missed something. Have to add, that Melon offers to check the webcam, and after runing the test and seeing my C930e failing 2 resolutions, bought Brio at Amazon :D
Another: Emojis on the ticker (bottom line) and comments appear single-coloured (I will still play with more settings).

555 Melons!! :)

Thank you for this amazing deal and I hope that this Lifetime deal will stay lifetime forever (a few days ago I received an email from BCast that they are ending their Lifetime plans for all AppSumo users).

Is there a new livestreaming champion on Horizon? This could be the case.

I am sticking with Melon!

p.s. didn't have time to check and test the apps, but these look most promising as well! .. also, I think I did see that you can put an audio background - still need to test it.

In short > Superb 100% fully functional, reliable and feature-filled livestreaming solution (not a beta product).
