Roger, does streaming media create less load on backbone than download-on-demand media, like MPG3? Unless I misunderstand, the backbone load of a popular service like netradio.net is recycled, rather than multiplied, by increasing demand on it? So that streaming media enjoys the economies of networks at the backbone's bandwidth?

If the above makes any sense at all....
