Alternative to Netmeeting

[abuthemagician]

At the company i work for, we have at least 2 Webinars a week, in which people have to travel to our main branch to attend. In the past, netmeeting could be used to share the video and audio of this confrence. However, netmeeting is going away. Is there a solution out there that would allow this?

Look into online streaming solutions. there are a lot of free tools out there.

if you just want great quality audio .. i would go with

.. The download is free and you can change bit rates.

Netmeeting is still a viable tool and is still included with XP.

yeah but it can no longer connect to a directory server and it probably will not be included in longhorn.

"... and it probably will not be included in longhorn."
But it will be replaced, not abandoned.
