"Netflix users make up 22.2 percent of all American broadband traffic, edging out BitTorrent's 21.6 percent. At times, Netflix's traffic share rises to 30 percent."

It's OK you are just talking out of your arse, you are more than welcome to do that. I would defend to the DEATH your right to spout your opinion as if it were fact.
But when you want to talk with the grownups, just get some citations to back up your case, then we can carry on. |
So your big "proof" is that P2P traffic dropped a whopping 0.4%.
Is that really the number you want to hang your argument on?
Netflix takes up nearly 50% of internet traffic and P2P traffic usage drops only 0.4%. How can you possibly claim that Netflix is hurting piracy based on that?
What you posted simply proves my point. Despite Netflix being hugely successful among paying customers, in that same time there has been less than a 1% change in P2P traffic.
Not to mention that's only P2P traffic. For someone as versed as yourself in piracy, you have to understand that file locker type sites are becoming more and more popular for sharing content and those don't show up as P2P traffic. I'm sure the increase in those sites more than makes up for the 0.4% decline in P2P traffic.
But you seem to be getting angry and frustrated since you are resorting to petty insults and sarcasm instead of sticking to the facts. I'm happy to debate real issues, but I don't have time to waste with personal insults back and forth on a message board.
