Re: 3G networks cracking under strain ...? Nope. Facebook If the described network is straining, it's because it has been oversold, not because of heavy use by individual users.
60 million hours = 3.6 billion minutes (not 4.8 billion)
3.6 billion mins / 16 million users = 225 minutes per month per user,
or 7.5 minutes per day per user.
That's hardly heavy use for an unlimited data plan. What happens if the average usage rises to 1 or 2 hours per day? What if the average user starts streaming episodes from Hulu every day, instead of YouTube clips?
