IMHO at that point universities will be forced to build and deploy some
kind of quota system for IP traffic.  My preference is for priority-based
quotas, but there are other ways.  (You have an infinite allocation at
precedence 0, a finite allocation at precedence 2, and a tiny allocation at
precedence 4.)

Without it, we may all choke on our own video streams.
