-----Original Message----- From: list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Gordon Henderson Sent: 27 May 2011 19:23 To: list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [LUG] Some good news for devon I was a bit skeptical of peoples ability to download more than a few 10s of GB a month, but I have a couple of business customers who hit their 90GB limit and one residential customer who goes over 100GB a month, and read about people whinging that they can't get more than 300GB a month - what are they doing with it??? Ah well... Gordon Well, I have quite a few friends who play Second Life and Wow for at least a couple of hours a day and everything displayed on screen is sent in real time (with SL anyway). So listening to music from 'in world' means it's easy to use 1 gig an hour. So 60 gigs a month just on a game, not counting any downloads or video streaming. I also regularly use skyplayer as well as iplayer and download movies to watch later. Sky keep telling me I don't have to worry about caps because I'm on their unlimited package and not had any emails or letters about exceeding bandwidth in over 2 years of using them.
