Math question about data usage

[Destructus86]

So, i'm going to be getting an Iphone soon and I had a question about data usage. I really only plan to use data for internet radio through out the day and when i'm driving. Maybe the occasional movie times or review look up, but mainly just radio.

I was wondering...how much internet radio can I listen to PER DAY for a month without going over the 2g limit?

A lot. I use mine frequently for radio and other things. I've yet to go over the 2 GB. I've gotten close, but not over yet.

It really depends on the bitrate you are using.

If you were on a 64kbps stream, this consumes bandwidth at about 7 kilobytes per second, which is equivalent to 420 kilobytes per minute, which is equivalent to about 25 megabytes per hour.

So if you were running for 24 hours straight, this would be around 600Mb.

Hope this helps.
