Just a quick question on how best to read a remote CSV file.
So far, I tried:

filelink = urllib.request.urlopen(path)
dictread = csv.DictReader(filelink)
for row in dictread:    ...
But I'm running into the difference between strings and bytes.
I'd like to squeeze a note that talks about the utf-8 encoding,
but although I find that as an option for a local file (with open())
I did not see that on my first glance at the two functions above.

Is there an easy way to read a remove CSV file with utf-8 encoding
without copying the whole file locally first?
