Re: And when you need to address something that is not a "content"?
And his last point seems wrong to me. Statistically I don't think people watch stuff at the same time... well not on things like Netflix anyway. The whole point of Netflix is that you watch what you want and when you want.
In the case of Netflix it seems to identify your local "cache" when you login and then pull whatever you ask for from there. I don't think I've seen it jump to other servers but perhaps I don't pay enough attention....
The only application I can think of is when you're watching a football match, for example. Then most people would want to watch live but that's only one specific scenario (well if you count live events as a scenario) and it seems we can already manage that.
