Is streaming ready for prime time?

It's my understanding that it is technically not ready.

Can Ustream hold more than 250 people without crashing? I have seen it clogged 
when 
over 200 people are on.

More to the point, I have heard that the flash streaming server technology is 
limited to 
under a couple of thousand clients per stream, no?

Does anyone know what the Flash limit is? Is there a workaround with colocating?


p.s. This note was resent - 2 others never went trough.
