You don't have to use Symantec servers for live updates. I run a set of 
servers at work, and our thousands of Windows and Macintosh clients update 
from there rather than Symantec. The reason to use an internal server is 
that you can stage and test definitions. Also with LiveUpdate 2.0 you can 
make your own update packages for apps other than Symantec apps. You can 
deploy them through your internal servers.
