Question Posted Saturday May 8 2010, 10:02 am

Thanks for answering my Rogers Message question! I also have another question:

Well we have two computers in our house and my brother uses his laptop (sometimes my sister uses her mini laptop). So for the 25GB, does that count for each individual person or all together?

And I do save space on my commputer by playing the playlist on my YouTube account, but since it'll take a lot of GB, is it better to just listen to my muic on Windows Media Player?

And so if i have a huge project to do and go on the computer for 5 hours a day for a week, I could already exceed my limit, myself alone?

Thanks!

You are welcome.

As for your new questions:

Yes it is split among everyone using the connection. All of you count against the 25GB limit.

Second, When you watch videos on youtube they are downloaded as you watch them. This is called streaming video. It means that you don't have to wait for the whole video to download before you can start watching.

After you are done watching it, your computer throws the video away. If you watch it again, it is downloaded again and takes up another chunk of your 25GB all over again.

As for media player: If the music you are playing is from CDs or music you have bought, which is stored on your computer, then playing it will not bother your 25GB limit.

Lastly, 25GB is a LOT of research. You could read every page on advicenators (about 700,000 pages) 3 times and still have plenty of room left on your limit so don't worry about doing projects. :-)
