A method for providing seamless redundancy in an output data stream includes the steps of: receiving a first data stream originating from a first location, the first data stream being conveyed over a first network path; receiving at least a second data stream originating from a second location that is geographically distinct from the first location, the second data stream comprising nominally identical content relative to the first data stream, the second data stream being conveyed over a second network path that is topologically distinct from the first network path; and combining first data segments from the first data stream and second data segments from the second data stream to generate a single, uninterrupted output data stream having a reduced likelihood of overlapping, missing and/or corrupt data segments.
