 VLC is now able (you need a  cvs version) to create asf stream over mms
for WMP client.
 For that, you need to compile  vlc with ffmpeg with mp3lame support and
then try something like :
vlc -vvv mms://streaming-1.intelcom.sm/magictv :sout=#transcode{acodec=mp3,vcodec=mp4v,ab=128,vb=1000}:std{access=mmsh,mux=asfh,url=serverip:1755/magictv.asf}

Then with WMP try to open mms://serverip:1755/magictv.asf or
http://serverip:1755/magictv.asf (VLC should be able to read it too)
 But the protocol used is really similar to http and so the total bandwith used will be
proportional to the number of clients.
