But it claims that this has now increased to <strong>500Kbps<\/strong> (0.5Mbps).<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore online video viewing in general has become dramatically more popular over the same period of time. For example, during the 2008 games UK viewers watched <strong>50 million online video streams<\/strong> (e.g. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a>, iPlayer), which represents <strong>558.8 Terabytes<\/strong> of data. During the 2012 Olympics, online video views could increase to 134.4 million (3.7 Petabytes).<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/wp-content\/gallery\/2012-internet-statistics\/london_olympics_2012_video_access.png\" alt=\"london olympics 2012 video access\" \/><\/div>\n<p>BlueCoat&#8217;s fear is that this year&#8217;s event could end up <strong>costing businesses a lot of money<\/strong>, not just in terms of extra bandwidth but also from the <strong>lost productivity of workers<\/strong>. Furthermore it notes that a single user watching one video can consume as much as 30% of a T1 (1.5Mbps) or 25% of an E1 (2Mbps) connection. &#8220;<em>With as few as three employees watching events, the network would be saturated<\/em>,&#8221; claims BlueCoat.<\/p>\n<p>As we keep saying, it&#8217;s certainly true that such events can strain capacity and result in slower performance, although most businesses and ISPs have by now adapted to handling such situations. Similarly the increases above, we believe, should not be considered in isolation of other changes.<\/p>\n<p>For example, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/2012\/05\/cisco-vni-report-predicts-quadruple-surge-in-world-internet-traffic-by-2016.html\" target=\"_blank\">Cisco&#8217;s 2012 Visual Networking Index <\/a>(VNI) forecast suggests that internet traffic as a whole tends to increase by three or four times every 3-4 years and bandwidth prices have, in many areas, also fallen.
