Some interesting details, is that this was a soccer game, not common among americans, but very common among hispanics. Mogulus has no advertisement whatsoever, it&#8217;s all word of mouth. I guess live TV on the internet could be a great business<\/p>\n<p>Just imagine what&#8217;ll happen with the Olympics, or when we have the next Fifa world cup, which was pretty hard to watch over the internet last time while we all were at work and no US TV channel cared for it. Viewers will flock by the 10s or 100s of thousands, and they&#8217;ll all be trackable. Joost better pulls this off with p2p, it seems it will be very expensive doing it with a client-server scheme.<\/p>\n<p>My question now is&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Should YouTube buy Mogulus.com Streaming Technology to do YouTube Live?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mogulus broadcasts to over 8500 concurrent viewers Originally uploaded by Gubatron.
