Re: 1 NetFlix movie is 2.68GB

said by Ark See Profile :

The streams are 500, 1000, or 1500 Kb/s as far as I've ever seen (Silverlight player).

At high quality, a 2 hour movie is 1.3GB or so:

So in other words you could watch 2 movies a day and still have 400 MB left over. Even going over you could still technically watch your 1500 Kbps stream only your throttled 1.5 Mbps connection. That being said, I think 5 GB a day should be the bare minimum. Though I suspect that 97% of their customewrs at this point won't notice a difference. In 2 years who knows.
