As you have an IIS-7.5 tag I am going to assume you are talking about streaming from a server to multiple WP7 devices. In which case you may want to consider using IIS 7.X for the streaming portion. The following link shows how you can build the client app for Windows Phone 7: http://www.iis.net/community/default.aspx?tabid=34&g=6&i=2020
The sample requires the IIS Smooth Streaming Client (1.1), Silverlight 4, and the Visual Studio Windows Phone 7 Developer Tools.

At the moment live streaming is possible but it ill not be allowed on AppHub for distribution. This is because you have to hack the dll's. This is because when you switch from your app to the camera it physically goes to the camera mode. To live stream you have to override this.
