In its ninth such report, Waterloo, Ont.-based Sandvine found the amount of data consumed by users streaming television shows and movies from Netflix's online service exceeded even that of peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing technology BitTorrent."

Love Netflix, but... by EvilStein · 2011-05-17 08:09 · Score: 1, Redundant
