For the past several years downloads were ascendant, driven by iPods, iTunes, and P2P. Low-res MP3s were good enough and portable.
Video is changing the equation. YouTube streaming positioned it as a legal service. HD files are too large for typical downloads and DSL and cable bandwidth. P2PTV has matured to bring distributed economies of scale to streaming media.
