+Livestreamer is a Command Line Interface that pipes video streams from
+various services into a video player, such as VLC. The main purpose of
+Livestreamer is to allow the user to avoid buggy and CPU heavy flash plugins
+but still be able to enjoy various streamed content.
+
+There is also an API available for developers who want access to the video
+stream data.
