The raw Russian feed is 10’s Gbps, WOW!

The BBC thus gets 120Mbps.

I am still curious as to why the BBC went for 36Mbps, quality i assume. What is BT’s 4K bitrate.

BT don’t seem to have a problem with their UHD live football feed, although not in HLG.

The UK IP network can’t currently handle millions of the BBC UHD HLG output. It sounds like the capacity needs to double. Is this going to happen? Or can the BBC lower the bitrate in some way, without affecting quality?
