hi
hum don't think so :)
a tp has 34mbit afaik
but there are first the 2mbit stream, and all the other streamings from eon
(6 streams/tp ?) so for unicast there are only ~20mbit. :-/
and there IS a limt of 300kbits and max 8 files/ip at the moment. but in
november eon should have 10 transponder.
and in the future there would be no unicast only multicast

so, sorry for my english :-) but i hope i helped

bye Michael
