Listening Live to the Mets

The Mets are streaming right now on WFAN.

After an injury to El Duque, John Maine is getting the call.

Six innings, three runs...  that's all I'm asking for.  Maine-Mota/Bradford-Heilman- Wagner.

Cross your fingers and please, step carefully around the dugout, boys. 

 

UPDATE:  WTF!!   I guess the game is blacked out or something.   Is it on ESPN radio?  Looks like I have to pay on MLB for radio.. this is stupid.   I can't get my free radio station over the web.

 

UPDATE 2:  MLB just got my $10 so I could get the game streamed over the web, which doesn't seem to work anyway...  at least the audio comes in.

The live streaming technology MLB uses was probably based on CDN with bandwith provided by Akamai. The more people watch the live streaming event, the slower the streaming speed.

In Europe, a company called RawFlow provides a P2P streaming delivery solution for soccer games. The more fans watching, the faster the streaming speed. In the US, there are also companies that provide content delivery solutions using P2P streaming technology. As bandwith becomes more expensive, hopefully more media companies will look into P2P streaming solutions.
