Note that this article claiming online video streaming needs to be saved is on a WebRTC marketing site "Powered by Technology Marketing Corp" advocating a competing technology.

I don't think online video streaming needs to be saved.

> There’s a clear event horizon where delivery overhead outstrips even CDN capacity.

If it's so clear, please enlighten me: All I see is network architecture making ever bolder jumps to increase capacity... Look at Amazon's multiple locations, look at fiber-to-the-home, look at the server farms around the country. Look at the bold instantiation of cell towers becoming ever-denser.

I think if the public demands 150 million individual 10Mbps streams, it will be built.

Not that WebRTC isn't cool for what it is, but a soccer game isn't a volcano (10 people punting a ball/data around like WebRTC isn't the same as a massive one-way structure of energy/data like a Volcano).
