It’s for an experiment: <http://realitybuilder.com> Eventually it may be live. However, my next planned step is an interactive video stream. At the moment, YouTube videos are played depending on user action. So, yes, some kind of server is needed that creates the stream. It may be possible with WebRTC, possibly with Node.js: `npm search webrtc` gives various results. However, I don’t like what [I read][1] about performance and limitations when abusing WebRTC for broadcasting: * “Maximum peer connections limit is 256 (on chrome). It means that 256 users can be interconnected!” * “Multi-ports establishment will cause huge CPU and bandwidth usage!” The second point is more of a concern at the moment.
