This is more or less what we do with our our client-side switching solution at Streamroot: we first make sure the user has enough video segments in its buffer, and then we try to get the next video segments for different CDNs, so we're

Indeed the article is more an introduction to multi-CDN concepts, but take into account that it was written for the HTTP video streaming use-case, and not static content CDNs. A client-side implementation of switching would not be very use

WebTorrent actually implements the bittorrent protocol, and can be used as a nodejs bittorent client. It extends the bittorent protocol to do p2p sharing inside the browser (but you only can connect to other people using the webtorrent node

Actually as the article mentions, most broadcasters today are using adaptive bitrate formats like HLS and DASH, that are solving this issue by serving you a bitrate that is low enough for you to handle. Today the major broacasters often hav

most people probably don't have the patience anymore to just pause and wait 30 minutes until the download is finished. And most of the new modern video players support adaptive bitrate streaming, that adapts the quality to your network

When did you try doing it? Things evolved a lot in the last 3 years in terms of video streaming support in HTML5, and today everything that was doable in Flash is doable in HTML5 with MSN and EME. You have control over the playback almost

Pseudo-streaming is (and should be) less and less used, and actually loads a lot slower than the new HTTP adaptive streaming formats like HLS and DASH.

HLS.js is doing great on Chrome, FF, Edge and Opera. For Safari it's better to use the native HLS player for now. The best option is to have HLS.js first on compatible latest browsers and Flashls as a fallback on older ones
