Look at the sky news video... What does it show? Success for Illegal streams of tv being confiscated...
Xtream codes don't provide streams...
Xtream codes v3 was due to be released today...
Put all this together, we have a botched update by xtream codes, which has put there system down... And we have a provider of channels in Italy (maybe other countries), who has been caught...

XC is just the software, there's different software available so it shouldn't make much difference.
Napster shutdown didn't stop people downloading music did it?

In the same breath will it stop issuing new lines immediately?

Doubt it mate everything will be back to normal if just an update what's shut the system down
Until xtream codes panels are back up, no one can create lines...
its not a fact they have taken down all their users, more that if doing an update to the software and its gone wrong then the software will not be accessable, users can still stream the iptv so they have not been taken down. Providers where aware that a new version was being launched today so notice must have been given.
Gosh, wouldn't like to have you as someone in the jury if I were to be in court for something I hadn't done...
They didn't mean to take down all their users (actually, it's only server admins and resellers, since end-users are unaffected). Think of it like this, virgin media do an update to a street... However, inadvertently, they drill through fibre optic cable taking that whole street back to main servers...
All these users are now down without internet/phone/TV until virgin can get that cable sorted... Once that cable is sorted, everyone is back up and working again...

Because XC is software and doesn't host any channels or streams, it's like if they took down openatv or openvix, all the boxes would still work

So in lamens terms, XC just populates channel streams?

It's simply a front end to supply the streams, the streams still exist ;-)

if it does go down, would that mean everyone would need to revert to streaming through just an m3u player app? Not quite getting the bigger picture

mag boxs will be usless thats for sure, loads of door stops going free lol
Surely, MAG's (by default and design) use the Stalker Portal system and not XC
there is an alternative but xtream codes was the one being used by most if not all.
I think the issue is more how the providers manage the users and subs rather than what the boxes use, all feeds are working at the moment, but without the panels providers can't add new or renew existing customers etc.

So there must be a backend to manage users via the providers end if this is just a front end to manage users
