Hello everybody, i'm here because i'm discovering FMS right now and i'm starting to ask myself question ^^.

I'm thinking about create a Web-TV :

I want to stream video with a playlist playing server/side, and sometimes live video with a camera.

i will not be the developper, i want to hire someone but what about the price.

I'm aiming to have like 50000/100k visitor by month, i'm considering buyin Flash Media Interactive Server Licence, but what type of server i need for this kind of traffic, i'm not a professional, i will hire a agency or someone, but i need information first, to be aware about what its going on.

What range of price should i expected ? FMS is a good choice for this type of web-tv ?

Thank you very much.

PS: I'm really sorry for my bad english.

    Flash Media Interactive Server can be a good choice for your task if you are planning to support 50000-100K users permonth. We can safely assume there will be around 3000-4000 users per day (boils down to 3-4 users per minute) visiting on your site. FMIS is capable of supporting much higher than this traffic easily, provided that other factors like your CPU, memory, bandwidth power doesn't exhaust in serving these many number of clients, so you need to make sure that you are using optimum server configuration and fulfilling the bandwitdth requirement from your network to support your users. FMIS supports both live and vod-playlists so there wont be nay problem.

    Beside that if you want to keep the bandwidth consumption low at your end, you may like to try the "Enterprise Flavor" of FMS i.e. Flash Media Enterprise Server that supports multicasting.
