Study highlights growing energy impact of internet video streaming

"There's going to be an explosion in the amount of movie streaming," [Arman Shehabi,Berkeley Lab] said. "What's happened between 2011 and now is like earth and sky. And on top of so many more videos being streamed, the videos themselves are getting more complex and requiring faster streaming rates. We want to highlight that greater efficiency of the network will be needed to offset this huge demand in bandwidth." - Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory via Phys.org
