infoneer-pulse: Internet video consumption rivals basic cable New data from network policy control provider Sandvine reveals what many have suspected: Internet video usage now rivals basic cable. Sandvine’s Global Internet Phenomena Report: Fall 2011 shows that real-time entertainment applications are the primary drivers of network capacity on fixed access (non-wireless) networks in North America, accounting for 60 percent of peak downstream network traffic from 7 p.m.-9 p.m., up from 50 percent in 2010. The report also reveals that we’ve entered a post-PC era where the majority of the traffic is destined for devices other than a laptop or desktop computer. Fifty-five percent of the real-time entertainment traffic is consumed via game consoles, set-top boxes, smart TVs, tablets, and mobile devices » via CNET
