No need. I provided the link with the stats, charts and graphs.

Answer this question. Is 8 minutes of average daily DVD viewing insignificant
or not, according to the article in Business Insider that I had posted?

Those graphs clearly state that live TV still dominates.

Answer this question: what fraction of daily video consumption do they
attribute to so-called "live TV"? Not vague banalities, Craig. Add it up.

The fact remains, of the average daily consumption of video
material, online streaming already accounts for just about
50% of the average daily total.

Not according to this article...not even close.

Cease the vague banalities, Craig. Do the addition and give us your answer.

And this study shows about 1 hour a day across all
streaming device,

Ooops. Better go and re-read, Craig.

Give it up Bert. These stats cover all forms of media
consumption across all devices.

Cease the vague banalities, Craig. What is the total of hours streamed, per
day? Just one hour, Craig? I quoted you above.

Radio blows away streaming.

Cease the vague banalities, Craig. How many hours are spent listening to radio,
as opposed to streaming?

Most streaming on Smart Phones is NOT program length TV.

First, you are again waving your arms, proclaiming things you cannot support.
But more to the point, isn't any amount of streaming a load on the Internet,
Craig? Or do you think that only TV streaming loads the Internet? Remember the
issue here. You proclaimed that the Internet is decades away from being able to
carry TV to the masses. Really? Do you not understand that if the Internet is
already supporting half of all daily consumption of video, adding more and more
TV video can easily happen as the months go by?

Do the numbers. Calculate the total hours spent consuming "video material" per
day. Calculate the total hours attributed to Internet streaming of video, per
day. Then give us what fraction that is of the total.

Do not argue until you know what you are talking about.
