I know that my computer is set to download 80KBps throughout each day

Yeah let's say you download this 12 hours each day that is 103 gigs a month. Normal bandwidth hogs take up 30-50 gigs. Of course you are going to get a letter about it. You might get away with it if you had DSL but not cable.

My computer that was downloading the radio streams was on 24 hours a day throughout the month. So basically, I ate up 6.9GB per day alone just from my computer. There was 31 days in July, so that would mean I ate up about 214GB in that month. By these calculations, this is just by using up 43% of the bandwidth available given by Comcast with their 1500Kbps.

Because I liked the music that's played over the Internet 24x7x365. Go to www.di.fm. Trance music.

I hate the music that's playing on the regular standard non-digital radio in the car. So I compile my own music on CDs to listen to. Now these are much more enjoyable to listen to than all that crap played in the car radio.

Why did you need to stream so many radio stations 24 hours a day every day? Was it out of pure fun? Because you can?

By the way...what program are you using to capture the streams?

StreamRipper32

»streamripper.sourceforge.net/sr32/
