kudos:12 | Further Proof This is just further proof that if engineered correctly, the Internet can be used as a distribution method very successfully. This is why the Cable Co's and ILECs (AT&T anyway) are scared. Limelight didn't have a connection to my regional ILEC, so I hit an NTT server a few hops off Verizon Business yet streaming was excellent.
The content distribution networks are in place to do this sort of thing, especially if it's a controlled ramp up. NBC just served 3.4 million streams with no hiccups. Imagine if they had years to test and perfect a system like this. The Comcast's/Time Warner's would have a fit. Which is why they are introducing caps now. |
