Why do they want to get into the live business? It doesn't seem to synergize with their infrastructure. Sending the same stream in real time to numerous people just isn't the same task as letting people stream optimized artifacts that are prepositioned at the edge of the network.

Not sure why this is being downvoted. I can see your point - it’s much harder to this live but a lot of their cdn infra can be reused.
