Live Audio Usage Question, Please ?

[BOBRR]

Hello,

Hope this is the right place to ask this. if not, please just let me know.

Am close to the point where Comcast gets upset over their monthly maximum usage allowance.

When I listen to a live audio stream, say from a aircraft control tower, either from RR, or the other sites that offer them (who I believe also tap into RR for), what is the very approximate usage ?

e.g., how many MB per hr. of listening ?

Thanks,
Bob

Each audio feed will use approximately 5 GB per month.
Each hour is 32 KB times 3600 or 115 Megabytes/hour per feed

If you listen to 5 audio feeds simultaneously, you could use over 25 GB per month just for the feeds.
