		Each stream returned by this module is responsible for picking up its own data from a shared source stream - This means that the stream-demux module doesn't hold any references to that streams which it produces via its `stream()` method; this reduces the likelihood of programming mistakes which lead to memory leaks since the streams don't need to be destroyed or cleaned up explicitly.

		The downside to making each stream responsible for consuming its own data is that having a lot of concurrent streams can have a negative impact on performance (especially if there are a lot of idle streams). The goal of stream-demux is to keep that overhead to a minimum.
