If you use a "firewire" cable to transfer the video into your PC you do not require any USB streaming software, of course your PC has to have a firewire input and this can be either a four or six pin type, six being the usual for desktop PC's, and the other end of the cable would have the standard DVi socket which fits into the camcorder.
The PC would have to have some form of video capture software like Windows movie maker or similar although any brands would do, Nero being particularly good as you can edit, add titles or insert music tracks etc giving the professional touch.
