What is the difference between On-Demand Streaming and Live Streaming?
A. On-Demand Streaming involves streaming pre recorded events and media from the website. This scenario is often used with media libraries or pay per view and membership style sites. DRM is easily managed with this option. Live streaming involves streaming media directly from the server at the time of recording. This situation is often used for live entertainment and social events as well as press conferences and the like. DRM can be accomplished on live streams provided the computer capturing the stream is also doing the encoding.
