I had a similar experience. I was able to stream video initially. I stopped after one episode and took a break. When I tried to re-connect, got the no bandwidth mesage, which lasted for the remainder of the flight. This was on a 320 that had no more than 50-75 pax.

I'm guessing we are going to be hearing about this more and more. Seems capacity of this system is not up to handling even close to normal passenger load.
