Re: [nznog] Multicast and InternetNZ By-Election - I stand forpromoting mult icast on the Public Network

In so far as content providers using multicast: As someone who has concurrently delivered live Radio New Zealand BBC World, XtraMsn Music Channels as well as Compaq || Hewlett Packard and Ministry of Health Live events, all of these content streams, where possible, used dial-in

multicast

for the Xtra network and would have used multicast via adsl for all events if possible.

The only trouble is you cannot do multicast over DialIP (telecom service) and the ADSL network yet which is where you have to get it delivered to. When this happens then more people will have access to it. The only people who can enable this is Telecom on their network.... Thanks Craig
