Hey Brad, I've used Adobe FMS from day one. It works fantastic and hardly touches my server, BUT it puts the load on the user's CPU. That's not a problem for most people, but occassionally a person comes along with an older weaker computer and/or a bunch of b.s. programs running in the background on their computer eating up their cpu and it causes problems for their viewing experience.

Are you saying that Wowza flips that around? That the main load goes to the server and not the user's computer? If so I might have to think about buying Wowza and doing a big changeover on my box. I have plenty of unused muscle on my box so that wouldn't be a problem at all.
