Streaming Radio- It's Consuming Bandwidth---------If your broadband package is limited to say 3 GB of downloads per month, how then would this be calculated when listening to the Internet Radio? The download is calculated by adding up data received over the listening time, as though you were downloading a file. Internet Radio Stations can send anything from 16 Kilobits per second (Low Quality Voice) to 128 KBPS (High Quality Stereo). If a station broadcasts at 56 KBPS, that's around 25 Megabytes per hour. Listening for four hours a day would use your monthly 3GB Allowance.
