The vast majority of people probably pay much more per GB than that. My family's traffic averages maybe 200GB per month.

- bombcar 4y agoAnd even more if you look at your cellphone - compare data used last month with your bill and divide it out.
- QuarterReptile 4y agoI don't consider them equivalent at all, though embarrassingly I don't know enough about wireless bandwidth and RF comms provisioning generally to be able to state conclusively that they're not.
- bombcar 4y agoJust that most people pay $100/mo for phone service and use 10-20gb or so (no idea) which is $10-5 a gig.
- nasmorn 4y agoI pay 20 for 25GB in Austria. Why is it so expensive in the US? You have not even close to twice our GDP/capita. Nationwide cartel?
- bombcar 4y agoI’m talking (amount actually used)/(amount actually paid). Many people have unlimited or some high limit but don’t use it all. (It’s not entirely fair as the device can do things like text and phone calls, but if I consider my phone as a phone only I was paying $100 for about 5-10 minutes of talk time a month (used) so in a way I was spending $10 a minute. Of course the main thing people want is data. We’re probably a few years from phones with data only and no phone number at all
