That alone is around 128 GB per month, but that isn't counting the other stuff you may be doing on the internet (downloading movies, music, etc...)

Maybe what needs to happen is for places like Netflix to develop a compression of movies that will keep the file size very low, but still present HD quality? That would curve the bandwidth issues, maybe???

I am dumb o nthis so please help but if you streaming a video you should be using less then a download, correct?
