Re:Press Release: Partnership between TVN and WDT for live streaming system
Mar 05 2009 06:16:17 This is going to make live streaming explode^^ As weird as it sounds when I say this but were in the stone age when it comes to live streaming. Yes the tech is there and its good enough but if there is lots of money in selling live feeds and video from the field I would think that the tech would only get better to improve the quality of the product. However things go in the future I think this is a wonderful oppurtunity for TVN and WDT and wish both the best of luck! congrats^^
