I just spent the past hour dancing at ResLive and I must say it was pretty cool. They have a great UI so it's easy to figure out how to get around, dress, etc. Plus it's built upon the Unity platform which needs no introduction. I think Adam has a hit on his hands. I can see it quickly filling up with Indie bands once the word starts to spread.

Wow. Live music specialty grid on ResLive, 45k prims on a sim in Inworldz for a fraction of the monthly tiers, and ooh..... Philip is offering us nothing really with music, meshes maybe in a year and display names to go with cartoon voice morphing.

Wake-up Gilbert. The Lilliputians are getting out their knives and forks...

The sharding is a logical solution to doing a broadcast-style performance to hundreds or thousands of people. But here's a thought -- there's no reason the 'shards' have to be identical. You could have the same performer or band performing simultaniously in hundreds of different venues without ever leaving the studio.

Heck, with a bit of tweaking, I bet we could scale the avatars down to the point where they could perform in little box stages in people's living rooms.

Now that's what I call 3D TV.

I don't think he owns much inSL anymore - they used to manage Azure Estates but that was a few years ago

Adam was a huge core developer of OpenSim three years ago and this current venture looks pretty interesting
