I've experimented with a number of solutions, from expensive dedicated turnkey products coupled with major CDNs -- to labor intensive 'roll your own" solutions that require building-out your own web-based video infrastructure.
At the end of the day, the cheapest, easiest to administer, and most flexible solution ended-up being a Slingbox 500. The stream is encrypted (one viewer at a time), there are free player apps for every imaginable desktop or mobile device platform, and the system natively supports adaptive streaming -- which automatically throttles the stream bitrate to match the connection bandwidth.
Are there better systems out there -- hell yeah, there are!
But a Slingbox 500 is essentially a dumb appliance that can get the job done with little-to-no distraction from what you do for a living -- namely editing.
