Not having ever used Netflix, I know almost nothing about it. Why not use
UDP?

More interesting to me is the BitTorrent usage percentages. Absolute
numbers would help ascertain how [a]symmetrical BT is (the supposition
being that people leech more than they seed)...of course, with
peer-to-peer, it would be a little harder to figure out which is the
'server' and which is the 'client'.
