I have stopped webcasting my favourite radio station (5AA) and have a battery opperated radio in the room when I am on the computer.

The last couple of months I have not got close to my download limit.

Only about 1/2.

Be Aware of this people. :D

Have you discovered that downloading something from the web uses up your download allowance?

Holy s***!

Good luck finding porn on the radio. Check out the married woman's site. Turn it on and there's silence....until you take your radio out of the bedroom.

Dogger, beware mate as Telstra count uploads as well as downloads in usage.
I know in recent months my uploads have exceeded my downloads but luckily for me an users of most other providers they don count and are unlimited. Time to swap ISPs mate!

Internode stream 5AA free (i.e. doesn't count to your download usage)

You really thought streaming the radio over the net wouldn't count?

Woop, woop ... avoid Bigpond at all costs.

It's the worst value Internet you can buy.

Don't you remember the Dr Feelgood talkback sessions on SAFM ?

Dr. - yes caller

Caller - My girlfriend is multi orgasmic

Dr. - Well, is that a problem ?

Caller - No, I just wanted to let the other lads that they're still out there.
