You mean IP TV content products from folks such as SES Americom' IP-PRIME or IPTV Americas or EchoStart IP TV or Intelsat? -----Original Message----- From: Holmes,David A [mailto:dholmes@mwdh2o.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 18, 2011 3:01 PM To: Michael Holstein; Roy Cc: nanog Subject: RE: Netflix Is Eating Up More Of North America's Bandwidth Than Any Other Company I think this shows the need for an Internet-wide multicast implementation. Although I can recall working on a product that delivered satellite multicast streams (with each multicast group corresponding to individual TV stations) to telco CO's. This enabled the telco to implement multicast at the edge of their networks, where user broadband clients would issue multicast joins only as far as the CO. If I recall this was implemented with the old Cincinnati Bell telco. I admit there are a lot of CO's and cable head-ends though for this solution to scale.
