Is streaming ready for prime time?

It's my understanding that it is technically not ready.

Can Ustream hold more than 250 people without crashing? I have seen it clogged 
when 
over 200 people are on.

More to the point, I have heard that the flash streaming server technology is 
limited to 
under a couple of thousand clients per stream, no?

Does anyone know what the Flash limit is? Is there a workaround with colocating?


p.s. This note was resent - 2 others never went trough.

 Music Hall.  
 
 It will be cast at both http://nfldraftmag.blogspot.com and from
 http://ustream.tv starting Saturday morning at 8 AM PST / 11 AM EST

 We will have visitors like Sports Illustrated's Paul Zimmerman and
 other s as well as videos from Draft interviews and some other
 surprises.  WE can't continuously show the Draft stage, but we will
 have audio and video such that you will be there with us as much as
 possible.  
 
 We expect some glitches, but that comes with the territory.  Spread
 the word and feel free to contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 with any questions.  I've spent a lot of time working out the details
 and rules with the NFL so I'm releaved just to be in New York and near
 the eve of this event.  
 
 The http://nfldraftmag.blogspot.com site already has NFL Draft-related
 blog content, and the offerings will only grow as we get closer to
 Saturday.   Thanks again to UStream's founders and advocates.

I was watching a stream from a conference last week where they had 650
viewers.  I'm not sure if they were saying it was 650 simultaneous
viewers or that overall, 650 viewers came and went during that broadcast.
