>> BTW - used ZOOM today for a 1st birthday party. It's not really that great for a large number of people.. the inability to stop at a single feed when not in meeting mode makes it difficult to follow what's going on.�  We had 12 feeds going to it.�  It was pretty much a madhouse. It seemed to think the loudest feed was the most important feed,�  3 or 4 feeds might be manageable.
