Main post

The broadcastcdn links used for various UK channels have yet again gone down. This time though, it's only certain links.

Some like ITV1 don't load, but others like ITV1 +1 do load (bearing in mind that +1 isn't in IPTV-org's list).

I can't list all of them, but some that are affected are ITV001, ITV2, Channel4, FIVE, 5USA and BBCNEWSHD.

Please confirm the following

It's because Kapang, the services behind it, verifies if their links are leaked or not, and change servers in case of an apparent flood of requests or misusages. They have quite a few subdomains ready when they need.
