Who is going to pay for the video bandwidth?

WebTorrents make it work so that everyone shares the cost of distribution.
This comes up every time someone posts a PeerTube link...and it's never as good of a user experience as videos playing from YouTube.

If it would work well for every user streaming services wouldn't spend millions on CDNs and streaming infra.
