not really youtube, but youtube video quality and how much bandwidth a 10 minute video would take up? how many mb's? cause i have been watching some shows on some other sites and i only have a 20gb/month cap.

when answered, lock please.

each vid in normal quality is in flv format, size < 15 Mb
high quality in mp4 <25 Mb
high definition, cause a lot of lag if you watch it without good pc, maybe <1 Gb

isp's that have caps such as yours is gay. if you live in a city or near lots of people look for someone elses wireless(if you have a wireless card), and there is no password. use up all there bandwidth.

the good thing about where i live is none of the isps have caps.. i do at min a tb a month of downloading.

You don't have to, but my father thinks it is a great idea to get everything in a package.
