Internet Streaming TV Delay

289 viewsOtherTechnology

Ive noted that Internet TV and streaming are delayed by about 30-45 seconds from what a live cable broadcast used to be. I understand that at this current time this is due to certain limitations in transferring the data. However, will we ever have a product that does not have delay over internet available to the general audience? I understand this probably doesn’t matter to most, however, for a sports fan like myself I do wish there were as little as a delay as possible.

You’ve done video chat right? Those video streams are in real time or just a fraction of a second delayed. The delay just makes it much more efficient for large audiences to watch a stream, they’re not any kind of requirement.
