The problem with WMP streams was that there was a 'cap' on the number of people who could connect at the same time. When the maximum was being reached, people got disconnected without explanation.

I think that you have to have your own host server and people connect to it. The 'usual suspects' like Veetle, Sopcast, even Justin won't work for WMP streams.

Edit: In all honesty, moving to mms streams is a backward step.

I was impressed about quality , it was awesome , I have a great internet connection I can stream with 10 mb/s or maybe more .. but I can't do it on flash .. I streamed on sopcast few months ago , but I don't like it because it requires internet explorer and sopcast plugin .. and lot of people don't know how to install it . I will search again for that WMP stream and I will show it to you

for you, easy way to streaming is sopcast, many people wants sopcast so maybe change your streaming in flash to sopcast, for more details after wmp contact me please in PM, thanks
