Streaming Video

[devonhiee]

I was wondering as to whether Streaming Video (not downloading) is illegal to do? For example if I have a movie on my computer and I wish for a friend to watch it on his computer as well, and I stream it, would that be illegal? Since he is not downloading it and therefore once I end the video he won't be able to watch it again, I am not sure as to the legalities of this.
