This is just a grab bag needing adding to.

Stream types
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Current stream types grab bag:

	- "main stream" web browsing

	- bittorrent/ ftp/ http file upload and download
		- regular movie download
		- software updates distribution

	- multi-cast
		- voice (internet radio)
		- video (internet TV)

	- text messages/ tweets
		- extremely high value but rare short text messages
		- boring/ regular text messages

	- real time media, e.g. voice and video phone calls
		- latency sensitive, as opposed to e.g. radio show distribution, which can tolerate
		  significant buffering and therefore latency

	- routing/ network control/setup/request/response type messages
