Weekly football is probably the second most important thing on a TV network behind the championships for whatever sport they're carrying, in a year. I'm not saying you need the whole 19mbps (though, remember here, we are not talking about "Additional Carriage"; we are talking about *being the only way people can see that game* -- and my example was the Super Bowl).. but unless MPEG algorithms have gotten *much* better than I'm aware of, 5mb/s is probably not enough for the Super Bowl. And you'd really be better off with some FEC, too, even if it costs you a couple frames extra delay. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
