> Hosting live video in a scalable way is a much harder challenge than
Totally. It requires figuring out and setting up arcane software such as Darwin Streaming Server, or Nimble Streamer, something like Quicktime Broadcaster, and Apache2, and also requires massive hardware resources, like a server for broadcasting, a server for shooting, and a webserver... that could be anywhere from one to two entire machines. That the WWW works at all is somewhat of a miracle. What webdevs do is more like brain surgery than anything else. ><
