An article mentioned BAMTech's platform which is what NHL, MLB, and HBO GO are built on. The bits from the first two come from Akamai and Level3 CDNs. I haven't looked into where HBO Go comes from.

Anyone know what Disney is planning on doing for streaming content distribution once they leave Netflix? Would be nice if they'd provide an on-prem cache server.
