The main reason for latency is that the live stream gets chopped up onto chunks--usually of around 10 seconds each--to be delivered over the internet. A streaming player such as Apple TV might require a few of those chunks to be lined up before it starts playing the video, launching viewers into a point that's well behind the live broadcast. - Jared Newman, TechHive [via/web:http://streaming-tv.us]
