No way it's going to take that long. Netflix is looking to have 4k streaming available next year, and I'm pretty sure they'll want to use h.265 for it. People already want better quality at lower bandwidth (bandwidth caps etc.) for 1080p media, so if this can deliver as promised, I see it catching on pretty fast.
And once it makes it into ffmpeg and gets hardware support I'll be all over it. I think in a year or two I'll be getting exclusively h.265 content.
