The thing that is interesting to me is that for a very long time, "Adult content" was what the vast majority of internet bandwidth was used for, by a tremendous margin. I remember in '01, one of my co-workers streamed CNN, after the twin towers disaster; In spite of working in the industry for several years, that was the first time I saw someone use streaming video over the Internet for anything other than demos (and pornography)

The fact that non-adult streaming video has surpassed adult streaming video (in terms of bandwidth used) is interesting because it means that the Internet is now a mainstream distribution channel for mainstream video.
