Report: Netflix is the Largest Source of Internet Traffic?

You may be surprised by Sandvine’s report that Netflix streaming video is responsible for more peak-hour Internet traffic arriving into homes in the US and Canada than any other source. The streaming video is now responsible for nearly 30 percent of all peak downstream traffic, a nice increase from last year’s 21 percent.

You may be asking yourself I thought YouTube was the all time video streamer. What’s up? Actually, other video services are responsible for only a small percentage of Netflix’s total traffic.
