Using “streaming” instead of “broadcasting” struck me as an odd choice for someone old enough to remember it.
It’s fine of course, it just stood out to me.

Agreed. Seems we’re losing the distinction between “one-to-many” (broadcast) and “one-to-one” (streaming) transmission models.

Don’t forget multicast (live streaming)!

IPTV made it one to one long ago though.

In Estonian we just created a local variant of “to stream”, “striimima”. Though I would also argue that it’s a distinction without a difference. When watching TV you’re also watching a stream.
