Good news for my custom, plain and simple, C coded media player based on ffmpeg. I'll be able to view such streams, but...
... how I can be a contributor of such p2p stream without a big tech web engine? (I use only noscript/basic (x)html browsers).
I could setup a "node" (should be plain and simple C coded) on my desktop computer, then from this node, I would extract the stream itself and watch it locally (I have a 800MBits uplink, and I know what IP diffserv with its ethernet translation is).
If the specs/protocol stack are reasonable and not too much convoluted, I would even be able to code such node (based on ffmpeg, very probably).
AND... if this p2p network is actually good and works IRL, do you really think the CDNs and streaming platforms will let it exist without a little bit of DDOS-ing...?
