  Hi folks.

  I am on limited meterage, so need to have a rough idea of how many megabytes I am using on this game. If it is possible, can anyone tell me how many megs I would use per hour on a four person game.

  Thanks for your time,

  hi

  it's different for everyone.  I would recommend you get a bandwidth image meter and let it record it for you.

  I clean everything often, and I would say around 75 meg per nine holes gets wiped.

  Thanks, Slillico, I thought it would be round there somewhere. I'm going to have to cut back.  :-(

  Just about everyone is getting hit with this now. If you do a lot a streaming tv and movies, you can cut the pic quality and it helps ALOT. With Netflix and Hulu, putting them on the lowest setting, it cuts usage by 2/3's. And the video quality is just fine.

  You may use less if you don't clean the cache, that way things won't need to be reloaded and files re downloaded.

  I feel your pain, I have 4 teenagers, 4 adults, 6 desktops, 8 laptops, 2 ipads and netflix, plus 1 dog who does not use up bandwidth, just space.

  I'm on a metered account and 100 GB is not enough.

  Not to mention that I feel the need to hire an IT guy for the house.
