Bell Canada up here is piloting something called Vibe TV - 100's of HD channels all on fibre to the home. Should be interesting. A tidal wave of change is coming to how TV is delivered. In Chatanooga I think Google is piloting 1GB internet (for $350 a month) - you can deliver loads of content on a pipe like that. The second I can get Habs games streamed in HD I'm dumping my satellite dish. Dylan Dylan Haines Systems Technical Support Manager

We've hooked a VCR up to an encoder box and "streamed" television channels to the classrooms before.

I know Windows Media Services can do this, but it doesn't work for flash/mp4 streams. Ideas? Bob
