Ever find an image on the web and wonder if you can use it in a presentation? Have you shown a YouTube video in a course that is also being streamed online?

You’ve heard of hybrid events. You know that they can help you expand the reach of your event by including those who simply cannot attend. What should those remote attendees experience? What is the easiest and most reliable way to make that happen?

What would motivate a small non-profit to buy an enterprise grade webcasting platform? Could they ever expect to see a return on that kind of investment? And why bother with professional-grade, purpose-built hardware, when software is cheaper and easier, right?
