    Hi

    Due to poor performance of our existing supplier we are looking into alternative audio and video hosting companies. Searching the forum I've found the following:
    www.i-broadcast.net/pgs/dcs/services/hosting.html
    www.limelightnetworks.com/
    www.interoute.com/

    Does anyone have any further suggestions?

    We are looking for companies who can support leading streaming media player formats (flash, real, WMV), boast comprehensive reporting and low latency from multiple locations around the globe.

    This last one is particularly important as we have many customers in the Far East, Australia and the west coast of the US.

    Many thanks

    James

    We work with our partners on this sort of thing but this is something which is of great quality, reliable and  would be expensive.  What's your budget and spec for this project?

    regards,

    Many thanks for all suggestions so far.

    Denis to answer your question

    Our current supplier hosts roughly 100GB and streams abouts 75GB a month. It also allows up to 3000 concurrent connections.

    Budget wise we are looking at roughly 2-4k per month

    Many thanks
