Are there a significant number (ANY?) streaming video providers using UDP to deliver their streams?
What else could we have that is UDP based? Ah voice calls. Video calls. Stuff that requires low latency and where TCP retransmit of stale data is bad. Media without buffering because it is real time. And why would a telco want to zero rate all the bandwidth heavy media with certain exceptions? Like not zero rating media that happens to compete with some of their own services, such as voice calls and video calls. Yes sounds like net neutrality to me too (or not!). Regards, Baldur
