I am partly joking, I realise that the technology was likely to be Japanese.

Streaming has come a long way though. HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding), or x265 is a major leap over x264 in terms of efficiency.
HEVC is an amazing leap forward imo some dodgy links on a certain media system use HEVC a lot and the quality was superb on it.
