Some times, the cost of things certainly justify the amount of time and
energy we will put into doing it ourselves.. Just a thought.

Actually - red5 will indeed allow you to stream media across it.  Its the
server-side component that you will need if you want to "decently"
broadcast video/sound.  Here are some tools that use red5 do accomplish
what you are asking:

Hope that helps!
