The rise of live streaming services like UStream and Qik is criticized for ruining the "theater of the mind" essential to audio broadcasting. The hosts argue that streaming mundane activities or behind-the-scenes footage devalues the final product and reduces economic productivity. They cite the disappointment of seeing how old-time radio plays were produced as a reason to maintain the mystery of the broadcast environment.
