Streaming was born following a happy accident. In the 1990s, a German researcher named Karlheinz Brandenbourg invented a new format: MP3. Music reached the last stage of digital evolution: it streamed.

At the time, almost nobody was interested in streaming, except for Rob Glaser. In 1995, this American entrepreneur managed to broadcast live on the Internet the commentaries of his local radio. What seemed like a small technical breakthrough was in fact the birth of livestreaming and the beginning of a cultural revolution that would allow anyone to produce and broadcast live audio and video content.
