I think the developer is in a better position to provide a liveness attribute 
because she is the one building the application (she can explicitly say what 
kind of stream it is). 

In this case, as a developer, I have no control over the streaming server I am 
connecting to. It's not my server.

That sounds reasonable. Again, it wouldn't help me in this case since I don't 
have control over the server. Contacting Live365 for any kind of technical help 
is extremely painful. We are trying to switch streaming providers.
