Data from the recent FIFA World Cup and live streaming services from social media platforms reveal that people are watching more live events online than ever before. However, streaming of live events are typically delayed from the broadcast and this often results in poor viewing experiences, loss of reputation when viewers publicly express displeasure and ultimate loss of revenue. We speak to Jaheer Abbas from Limelight Networks about the state of live streaming and how video consumption has changed over the years.
