[IMC-Video] video streaming discussion...

[Todd Boyle]

thanks, i want internet tv, and i want to stream 
it to other people in the neighborhhod.  oh well, 
mayby around the region but who give a f*ck about 
them, if they are 15 miles away they might as 
well be in brazil or something.   I want to 
stream antiwar and other alternative tv content 
to *people who I can get to know* and who might 
appreciate it, obviously you're not going to do 
stuff for people who are so lazy and useless they 
don't even appreciate it...  but the people who 
get the point of it will come an put more content 
on there, obviously.  Like why shouldn't I put up 
a server in my neighborhod? Once we get this 
rolling then P2P wireless is a no brainer because 
a) we are close enough together and b) there's a 
motivation model other than money.  Like this 
week and next week about a million people who 
don't even know each other are going to 
houseparties to see a video "iraq for 
sale".  They do this over and over, this proves 
that people are starving for anythin that is 
real, anything that has a local and community or 
social element to it.   And that is just one 
video.   It defies reason, why people don't put 
up a server and do that 24 x 7, servers are 
free.   They are sitting out on the curb in the 
trash, people don't even know how to use a 
computer.  it is pathetic,  I found a 2 ghz dell 
a cuple weeks ago with a dead power supply.
