XBOX 720: possible digital download mass service.

Well, those are the numbers we can see from a single transceiver (right now
mostly 10G and some 40G right now, and 100G on its way); but most of the
big players are using multiples of these with DWDM and link aggregation.
 I'd say the actual numbers are closer to 680G average right now, per path.
