    I used to download movies during Night Unlimited only (don't have enough time for streaming).

    Usually download 2-3 movies at one night & watch them at free weekend

    Speed will be very less compared to Home 500. I switched just because of those huge bills they used to send me.

    because of the speed i don't want to do it......
    rather i never got maximum speed of 500c+
    i don't get any huge bills because i only download things during NU.
    not a single file i download if its more than 30-40MB.

    I used to have Home 250 till last March. At that time, the speed was just 256 kbps. Then they changed it to 2 Mbps. If they had changed earlier I would have been bankrupt.

    I cannot send PM or VM due to 500 post limit. Will reply your VM once I pass 500 posts.

    he meant to say he limits the per day usage to 78MB all in including videos , surfing etc.

    I prefer to watch videos in NUL period and use youtube downloader in NUL, just schedule youtube videos and videos , stuff from torrents at 2.30 am onwards and cut off at 7 am

    ^ I find watching videos online such a bore. All that dithering and stuttering (buffering) is just too frustrating.

    I prefer buying or (sometimes) renting.

    @screwed
    Yes BSNL calculates all data transfer as downloads. It can include browsing, watching videos, listening to music, checking email etc. Your username is apt for the situation

    @ screwed

    BSNL calculates your usage as download + upload. If we use internet just for browsing, it will cost around 15 MB per hour in your usage stats. For YouTube videos, it is almost 100 MB per hour.
