Abstract

A system for providing streaming services. The system includes a plurality of users each for generating a stream of an event on a connection of a public network. The system also includes a server configured to receive a plurality of the generated streams, determine content for at least one output stream, and output the at least one output stream on a connection of a public network, with at least one user receiving the at least one output stream. The content is determined based on one or more of content received from input streams, content requested by a viewer, and the user profiles of the contributors.
