To send 500 channels to 500 million people only uses “500 bandwidth”, but 1 million people using 1 connection each uses “1 million bandwidth.”. That’s 1/500th the amount of users using 2000 times more bandwidth or 1,000,000 times more bandwidth total. That assumes that each user is only using the same amount of data as watching one stream.
