Hmm... the silence in here is deafening. Certainly I can't be the only one who watched.
But then maybe, like me, you'd just prefer not to comment. Suffice it to say, I saw no "slam dunk" in this one. :(

I listened to it for a bit, they all sounded the same. Did i miss some big difference?

No, unfortunately, not that I could see. I was disappointed in that I heard little, if anything, that would distinguish John from the others. Not the strongest performance.
John is not the best debate performer. His poor performance in the debates against Brad Ellsworth in 2006 were a very big part of his loss, I believe. Hostettler does his best when he meets people face to face, and addresses every one of there questions.
I attended a town hall in Evansville a little while ago, and the event was supposed to be over at I believe 9PM, and John stayed for at least an extra hour and a half, until the venue was going to shut off the power basically, answering people's questions, and addressing there concerns with the utmost respect.
He's not a very good debater (long winded) but if you watch his town halls on youtube you'll see he has a lot of substance.
This was a stupid debate anyway- not much of a debate even, just them answering questions one at a time and the moderator was awful and made it really boring.

We've had like 10 debates here. They're all terrible. I think this one on C-Span was a rerun of a debate that actually happened a few days ago.
Like others said, the venue where Hostettler really shines is his town hall meetings.
