    by my research. A single server of sufficient power could easily serve thousands of users.

    That’s some shitty research you’ve done then.

    1000 users streaming something that’s 5mbps would be 5gbps.

    5gbps isn’t common for consumers… and costs a lot in a datacenter (about 4k/month on the cheaper end).

      Buddy, do you not know how periods work? That’s 2 different sentences you’ve mashed together and pretended they were one.

      Secondly, I didn’t say simultaneously.

        I do know how sentences work. I also know that paragraphs and posts sound be related to each other. Your sentences are not completely divorced from each other.

        The point was that you’re claiming to do research on something just to turn around and say something that WILDLY wrong. This discredits any amount of research you would have done.

        Doesn’t matter if you say simultaneously or not. You said THOUSANDS… I showed you just 1000. And this was ONLY looking at bandwidth. Not actual server costs.

          I claimed to do research on something very specific. If you have evidence to the contrary, please feel free to prove me wrong instead of just intentionally misrepresenting my statement.

          Doesn’t matter if you say simultaneously or not.

          …of course it does? A thousand simultaneous streams is not going to have the same load as a dozen…
