[Zope] best streaming practice??

Both popular current streamming solutions are copyrighted. I prefer Windows
Media because as it's bundled within Windows 2000 server, it offers an almost
turnkey solution for producing streamming files. (I never though I was going to
say it, but the overall media quality is better than RealNetworks's.)

If I were to give an immediate answer, I'd say: Use Windows Media to produce
files and serve them, LocalFS to bring pre-streamming media files directories
into Zope, and write your own Zope logic to translate a request to LocalFS
content, to correspondant URLs to the streamming media server. Then, if I were
still in budget, I'd contract Akamai to speed up my streams.

As I said it before, LocalFS needs some aditional work to offer full
acquisition features and metadata storing, but it's the entrance door to a
fully featured media asset management system.
