Internet TV traffic will grow to 7 million tebibayt
Analysts at iSuppli predict Internet TV's staggering growth over the next four years. According to their calculations, by 2011 this market will grow from the current $ 779.2 million to $ 26.3 billion, that is, 34 times.
Television Internet traffic will grow 44 times: up to almost 7 million tebibyte in 2011. One tebibyte (TiB) is equal to 2 40 bytes and is analogous to a terabyte (TB) with a relative error of 9.95%, that is, 7 million TiB = 7.7 million TB. Manufacturers of network equipment and providers have already come to terms with the inevitable crisis of throughput of the main communication channels.
