22 Posts

There is so much 'over simplification' of how Netflix does it's television... Is their content streamed as DVB-T2 or similar??
search for DVB-T2 on wikipedia
If it is streamed in the same way as ytube, surely there would be problems if you have a very low download cap...
Are there any figures about the amout of data involved when watching 1 hour on netflix?
There was research done on 4K over DVB-T2.

Anybody who wants to maximise their Netflix usage will already be on an unlimited internet tariff. Caps are pretty much a thing of the past, often replaced with "fair use", which basically boils down to "don't do anything that disrupts the internet for other customers". Providers now expect a good chunk of the user base as things stand to stream a lot of video data and also the whole work from home thing so it won't come as a surprise to them.
I hammer my internet line with live sport or on demand every night with no problems whatsoever as I no longer watch live TV provided via terrestrial or satellite. Its internet all the way and quite a fair portion of it is in 4K as well.
