When I joined in 1998, Jobs demo’d live broadcasting at WWDC that summer (I wrote the broadcaster system code and first app).
Thereafter, WWDC and MacWorld keynotes were webcast through Akamai, and it wasn’t crappy, there were megabit, 300kbit, 100kbit and 40kbits streams. Maybe you had a crappy dial-up connection, back then Liz.
Here’s a press release describing the record number of streams served in 2002:

They are certainly turning things to gold and I suspect that if they want to take this direction that it will be even bigger than they expect.
