My work has the vpn simplified to just typing a single code from an app, just an 8 digit number. It's not that bad, but I despise the additional latency the VPN adds.

Yes, audience size is key. If there was only 50-100 listers (say late at night), does it make sense to run a 1kw microwave for each listener so they each can hear Nickelback? I know it's more complicated than that, if they shut off the
