Hello,

I'm looking to create a website with lots of streaming Flash content that will be accessed by multiple users. I'm looking at the difference between Flash Media Interactive Server and Flash Media Streaming Server; however, I'm not sure if there is much difference between the two based on what I need. Can someone please assist me in telling me the difference and, most importantly, whether Flash Media Streaming Server is enough for what I need.

Thank you!

    They way I understand the two platforms:

    You can stream video/audio with FMSS 3.0 You can also add captions, create hotspots in the video and do some cool interactions via actionscript and xml based on cue points within the video/audio itself.

    FMIS, in addition to streaming media, is more for P2P type applications. Live chat, video chat and user generated video capture.

    From your lead sentence I'd say FMSS will do the job.
