    does it take a lot of internet usage to download a programme?

    say for example I wanted to watch spartacus. Am i better downloading and watching or just watching?

    not sure how internet usage works tbh

    and what about having say veetle?

    best place to download would be appreciated too <ok>

    this is obviously for knowledge purposes and not because i am going to do it

    to be totally honest i probably wont watch the whole lot

    i used to love 24, but couldnt watch it regularly. no point buying the series as never had time to sit and watch and never do. rather be up and about

    good to know though, how to do stuff etc that is

    I'm just downloading the first episode of that as well. Stuck in bed with a throat infection. Try here, I've got software that allows me to get video off an internet page but you can still stream it.

    http://ipb.quicksilverscreen.im/index.php?/topic/190427-divx-spartacus-blood-and-sand-2010/

    It's around 450Mb a episode that I'm downloading but it isn't fantastic quality. I used to get HD rips of House episodes around 350Mb.

    Veetle is for streaming, generally sports. For example, norwaysport.co.uk uses veetle to stream most sport, football, cricket etc. It is fantastic quality, the best I've ever used on the net but it does take up a lot of bandwidth. I tried watching some of the United tour games on my mobile off my 3G with Veetle. 20 minutes in and I'd downloaded about 200Mb. Bang goes a big chunk of my allowance for the month.
