Streaming dead again.

Dying at merit.demarc.cogentco.com with 3561ms figures in traceroute.

How many would pay some $$$ for this to be moved in the future to a premium
service provided by someone like RealMedia.  Methinks the merit servers are
getting crushed.

I'd pony up some $$$ to virtually attend it if it were reliable.  Seems a
lot less reliable this time around.

FWIW, if the only video shot is a long shot of a talking head wireless
discussion, save the bandwidth and only stream the audio, or cut to the
slides if there are some.  Burning 80k to see a pixelated animation doesn't
do anyone any good.
