PhenixP2P Plans To Fill Live Streaming Void With ‘Real-Time’ Sports Content

There’s a void in the live streaming and video marketplace, and it’s one that PhenixP2P is trying to fill.

According to Chief Marketing Officer Jed Corenthal, the Chicago-based startup and live streaming provider is a true vehicle to produce “real-time” content, with less than half a second in latency or lag as opposed to other streaming companies and networks like NeuLion, Facebook, Twitter and iStreamPlanet, among others.

He said that those companies may say they’re live but there’s still anywhere from a 10- to 60-second delay, even potentially longer. For major sporting events like the Super Bowl — where the FOX Sports Go App crashed during February’s game — Phenix would be able to better distribute concurrent streamers across its platform so those situations don’t arise and negatively impact a fan’s viewing experience.
