In this context: ROI Multicast only works for a specific class of data - live broadcast or file, one-to-many simultaneously... So any multicast business model can not threaten the core Internet base business, it can only help... Clients must still pay for their connection... More Content - more client demand for service... More customers for the entire network... Enables live media service content to be delivered without stress on the Servers network. Thereby Enhances performance - no jitters - Forward error correction ( connectionless servers - protects the broadcast server from rogue client software ) Unicast servers a vulnerable... Less pressure on peering points... Michael Sutton www.awacs.co.nz
