Dalma Posted June 11, 2010 Posted June 11, 2010 Does anyone have any experience with streaming video. My client wants to sell both DVD's and streaming video access to a educational video they have produced. The DVD portion is not an issue. They want to sell access to the streaming content. I'm curious about information related to the hosting of a several gig video and then the client used to integrate it into the website. Anyone have experience doing this?
NodsDorf Posted June 12, 2010 Posted June 12, 2010 I've looked it something similar which was hosting games. The problem is some of the games / downloads were 5-10 gigs. Once you start factoring in 100-150 people all trying to download or watch this video at once. It was quite apparent that you needed your own server, or a dedicated server or multiple servers. Then there is the bandwidth issue. I have seen some host now claim they will give you unlimited bandwidth but haven't yet tested them. Most offer 1tb to 2tb per month before the pricing goes crazy.
