I have not done streaming video, but some audio.  I have used Real.com's
products.  They are well supported and have free creation tools.  While
these tools are limited, there are more advanced versions that you can buy.

The problem with video is the amount of storage required on the server;
video eats up a ton of space.

You can find more details at www.real.com.
