I think the point with that is where P2P dominates with % of all traffic is on the upload where heavy use affects everything for other users, ping, download and upload. Heavy downstream usage where Netflix and Youtube dominate doesn't affect others anywhere near the same extent.
At least that's how i see it.
It is quite staggering to read that Netflix and Youtube account for 51% (in the US) of all download traffic though.
