Re: streaming over DSL/networking advice

Basic math is all you need.  Figure out the bitrate of the streaming movie
and then multiply that by the expected number of connections.  Work in a
15-20% contingency and you have a pretty good idea of the amount of
bandwidth required.

ie   100 kbps * 100 connections = 10000 kbps = approx 10 Mbps

I hope that's right, it's late for me :-)

To make this horrid math a little easier, grab BOPJET's Streaming Media Calculator from this URL:

We're working on a bit of an updated one, showing the steps involved in coming up with the magic number at the end.
