video on demand will significantly outweigh other types of consumer Internet traffic by 2015

Internet-based multimedia content delivery enables users to watch desired content from any location at any point of time. With the increasing capacities of end-user devices and faster Internet connections, the popularity of such services is growing steadily. Some forecasts predict that by 2015 the share of video content will exceed 91% of the global consumer traffic, resulting in the equivalent of 12 billion DVDs per month to cross the Internet [Cisco 2010].

video on demand will significantly outweigh other types of consumer Internet traffic, such as file sharing, web, Voice over IP (VoIP), and online gaming.
