There's nothing keeping you from partitioning a physical channel via a
separate protocol layer. For example, a DSL line has far more
bandwidth than needed to watch youtube, but that doesn't mean that
html, email, etc. is interleaved into the FLV container!! Rather, you
have TCP for multiplex unrelated connections over a single physical
network line. The same principle applies to broadcast channels as
well. There is no excuse for container/transport incest!!!!!
