SwarmStream is a professional product I had evaluated for video streaming back in 2006. It costs $25K for a site license and is used by large sites serving a lot of streamed video content.

It’s architecture its different from BitTorrent and closer to Joost (which is free but I hear they’re shutting down the P2P client due to business model reasons)
