Netflix has done a great job deploying OC Appliances. A Netflix user != Amazon, Hulu, etc... At 02:58 PM 12/11/2019, Brian J. Murrell wrote:

As the service grows in popularity, and its breadth of content and manageable price is likely to attract a lot of growth, I'd like to plan for any necessary augmentations to the network.
From the end-user/viewer network capacity perspective is a new streaming service likely to (significantly) "add new viewers" or more likely to just shift existing viewers away from an existing service (i.e Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, etc.) to Disney, resulting in a net-wash from the end-user/viewer network capacity perspective?
I guess the question is, will Disney content compel users who are not already streaming to start streaming?

Fair enough, in the cases where operators are Netflix OC partners and might see a shift in network use from a Netflic OC appliance to external their network to other streaming services. But for an operator who doesn't have an OC Appliances, is there likely to be much difference? I suppose that was the context I was thinking in. That said, I (admittedly, idly) wonder what percentage of users (world- wide, by nation, geographical area, etc.) are served by OC Appliances. I really have no clue as to the penetration of OC Appliances. Cheers, b?
