Hi Eve, To me this sounds like a definite case of PIM Dense-Mode. This is what Cisco says:
Dense mode PIM is designed for the following conditions: Senders and receivers are in close proximity to one another. There are few senders and many receivers. The volume of multicast traffic is high. Sparse-mode PIM is designed for the following conditions: There are few receivers in a group. Senders and receivers are separated by WAN links.
