I also upload a TON of files via my website.... it does approx 50mb a day at peak.

Maintaining multiple systems, keeping them up-to-date.... I also get the odd distro for other people.

I find I do a lot of data transfer between myself, work, and wherever I happen to be simply because I have all my data accessible to me should I need it.

P2p? Naaah.... not for me.


Chill.

312037 2005-01-10 04:01:00 Depends on the game and the number of players. I would say an easy 50 - 100MB Chilling_Silence (9)

Nah that's a bit of an overestimate - more like 20MB per hour, but naturally still dependent on game and no. of participants

312039 2005-01-10 09:52:00 My server uploads around 6GB / month - I personally use around 3GB, and my dad and brother use the remaining 1GB between them. So we use the 1GB about perfectly :) george12 (7)
312040 2005-01-10 09:56:00 George, I suggest that you complain to Trevor Mallard about the quality of Mathematics being taught in schools. ;) agent (30)
312041 2007-10-20 06:06:00 Two in my house and two computers. About 6 to 8gb per month. One is a serious gamer. No p2p. Google Earth chews up bandwidth quite a lot. Max up and max down speeds. lakewoodlady (103)

Did you note that this thread is 2 years 9 months old out of date, lakewoodlady?

I suggest many of the above posters will have changed their usage since then.

(Thread should've been closed when the poll did?)

Edit: Actually, as the names/totals are still viewable, some of you may find it interesting to see what you said then - and what applies now?
