    Since all the leagues in Europe have started I am thinking about opening a live-streaming blog.
    I am going to put there links to other live-streaming sites of-course...
    My question is: Is this legal or not?

    Thanks in Advance (again), Jordan.

    Streaming sports or any event is illegal without the rights in which to broadcast them but there are plenty of sites out there that are looking to use the technicality of simply iframing feeds hosted by other parties in order to prevent legal incrimination.

    I don't think it is illegal since you are posting links to other sites.

    Live streaming is okay if content is not copyrighted or you have the copyright (your original content).

    Legal or not doesn't matter as much as does it violate AdSense's TOS or not, and yes it does, it's in copyright infrigment part of their TOS.
