SDSL

SDSL is ideal for live streaming, as it is possible to send out a broadband quality stream at a fraction of the cost of traditional leased lines.

Streaming Wizard has been involved in British Telecom's trial of SDSL, and highly recommends it for streaming applications.

Due to the line being symmetric, the upload speed used for sending the stream to the distribution servers is significantly faster than ADSL which is limited to between 100 and 250Kbps dependent upon the package.
