Tangential. Streaming TV has given us many benefits. More choice, watch at any time, pause, save for later ('record'), etc.

But I am wondering how much that has increased energy consumption for watching TV and having the internet as its backbone?

LED screens use less power than old CRT TVs.

Well, yes. But I was more interested in the energy requirements for getting the signal to your home.
