  1. Audio or Video? What source formats? by rf600r · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The OP didn't mention if this was an audio-only presentation, or video, too. Do you need to insert ads? What countries are you delivering to? Using any DRM? Do you plan on both hosting the origin server(s) and delivering the content yourself? How big is your potential audience? How high is the BW on your streams? What operating systems? What formats?

    Need. More. Input.
