There are a lot of other video content websites that aren't YouTube and are struggling to compete with the large players like YouTube and Netflix that can put a box in every ISP in the world.

It's very challenging to figure out how to do this in a way that benefits users and improves user experience - we are very careful about being fair to users on mobile connections - but I think that a distributed web platform is the future and the only way we can combat the (lack of) net neutrality.
