Live means that you get it as it's being broadcast, as with
videoconferencing for instance. If a request takes 2 minutes to insert and
2 minutes to request then that means 4 minutes of lag between parts.
That's assuming that whatever HTL takes too minutes to insert is going to
be high enough for you to be able to find the files. It might take 40
minutes instead.

If on the other hand you wanted something which is pre-recorded but
scheduled, such as hourly news, then that is a much more realistic thing
to try to accomplish on top of our infrastructure.
