Were they streaming real-time? I could only find that they are hosting their videos on https://media.emacsconf.org (would be interested to know who the host is and how much it costs to host videos in this way).



Hosting videos is trivial, especially for a relatively low-traffic event like this. Getting a dedicated host with unlimited traffic (like what Hetzner offers), you usually get a 1G uplink or better, should be able to host it no problem. Under 100 USD/month should be doable.


Right now there's 1,400 streamers.


I assumed parents second question was about hosting videos for download, not hosting live streaming.


Shouldn't something like PeerTube scale nicely for having lots of viewers? Does it still use P2P for live streaming?
