Janko Roettgers at NewTeeVee, citing a Sandvine broadband report, reports that Netflix customer use more peak streaming trafic than HBO Go, Amazon and Hulu.
Amazon’s video service on the other hand, which is widely seen as its biggest competitor, only causes 1.75 percent of peak residential downstream traffic. Other competitors fare even worse in Sandvine’s report: The network management company sees Hulu causing 1.38 percent of residential peak downstream traffic, with HBO Go barely registering with 0.52 percent.
I'm wondering what impact a standalone Amazon Prime Video or HBO Go subscription would have on these numbers.
What about YouTube traffic? Has to be way more than Netflix.

It's not 33% of streaming. It's 33% of total download transfer rate.
