I don’t know where to ask this question so if this is the wrong place then I can take direction.

I was thinking about my plex server and my upload speed and the number of clients I could serve. I have the 4k release of the Thing where the average bitrate is close to 100Mbps. I could maybe serve 5 people on my setup if they all played that.

Then I got to thinking about Netflix, Disney, etc. and how they all serve 4k files to millions of people. That’s an enormous amount of data they’re pushing out to the internet.

If they’re serving an average bitrate file of 50Mbps to a million people? Dude that upload speed is ridiculous. Do they really have upload speeds that high or am I missing something here
