The Netflix estimates are about 3-5 megabits per second of bandwidth consumed for 1080p and about 15-20 megabits per second of bandwidth consumed for 2160p (aka 4K). I have measured about 15 megabits per second of bandwidth consumed with 4K videos on YouTube. I agree that most people have much more bandwidth than they require.

Been there, done that (DSL @ C link).

We are running BASIC Comcast internet (28 Meg max) and have absolutley no issues running a 4k stream and numerous 720P Ip cams viewing remote properties.

People paying for "Blast" are wasting money; unless they are running Servers for other services.
