From: "Mahesh Joshi" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Serving content/advt based on Geography Hi, We want to customize our streaming content based on geography. For e.g., when user A from California connects to the stream he will hear song1, advt 1, song 2. whereas user B form New York connects to the same stream he will hear song 2, advt 2, song 4 and so on... (we are talking about SLTA or live streams here and not on-demand. For live streams, we are talking about customizing advt. based on geography.). Its the same model your cable company uses except the streams are distributed by geography and so they can do it. How does one do this using Real's streaming technology. The only solution I have come up with is having multiple streams one for each geographic region, but this gets to horrendously expensive. I am not a SMIL expert. Can SMIL do this or are there any other solutions? Thanks in advance!
