This is really interesting.
I understand yes, when streaming, you continously provide feedback to the server with the amount of data recieved and played. So some additional data would be send.
------------------------------------
Additionally since data is through TCP/IP, the data packet choose different paths, your system may have to perform multiple "assembly" operation to stream the video , complared to one time "assembly" if a file was downloaded
