> The type of bandwidth and compute power you need to distribute 5Mbps video to a couple thousand viewers is easily in the reach of individuals now. (10Gbps connections to the Internet can be had on the order of $1000.)

I stopped reading here because you're clearly out of touch.

I have spent the last 6 years of my life working at ISPs. I know how much this stuff costs. I also moderate several Twitch streams.

I'm happy to give you a phone number to call to get your 10Gbps transit circuit set up at that price, even though I don't work there anymore.

Please do. You'd save the company I work for several tens of thousands of dollars a year that we pay on our current connection.

Unless of course you mean "$1000/mo, after several million in upfront costs".
