Let’s take a step back for a second. 250 GB/month is a very large amount of data. I won’t repeat the fact that far fewer than 1% of our customers use more than that. Oops. Sorry. Now, to hit that threshold you’d have to download more than 60,000 4 Mb songs in a month. On iTunes, that would cost about $60,000. A month. And how long would it take for you to listen to that many hours of music? 60,000 songs X 4 minutes/song that’s the equivalent of 4,000 hours of music per month. There are only 720 hours in a typical 30 day month. So, that’s almost half a year of music to listen to 24 hours a day for 30 days a month. And, by the way, if you keep going along this tack, you’d spend $720,000 a year.
