Mike, I call bullshit here. The sales of Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Amazon’s streaming stick, TiVO Stream, and other set-top boxes that stream room to room are just too high to believe that people are not using these devices to move A/V information within the home. Add to that the number of people who use tablet/cellular capabilities like AirPlay to stream content from their phone/tablet to their A/V systems and I think you’re well beyond 5% of the market and growing.

Over 95% of the people don't do anything of the sort (probably much closer to 100 than 95). The most common usage is tablets and phones going to Facebook, YouTube and Netflix. Regular consumers couldn't care less about anything else. If you think otherwise, you've (perhaps thankfully) spent too long away from your standard consumer).

Only have a 25 meg Internet service? Use a 5 MHz channel, not 160 MHz.
So, if I use wireless to my, for example, Apple TV, I should limit the rate between my file server Mac and the Apple TV based on my Internet connection speed?
I’m not certain that is reasonable.
