We now have hard evidence for what so many of us have been saying for years. Data infrastructure simply can’t cope with even a modest increase in use of streaming services. Providing all TV over IP would require a greater than exponential increase in capacity and we are many, many years away from achieving that.
You underestimate the progress that will be made by the next decade. Of course capacity is limited right now, but surely you are not suggesting that it will always be thus.

I trust that you now accept that there is enough electricity to cope with streaming these days!
