Does anyone know how much kbps streaming 720p over the Internet takes? I have someone in my complex constantly streaming this and it's eating up our 250gb threshold by Comcast.
Got a tip for us?

That depends on the source. YouTube might differ from other streaming websites.
One 720p video I tested at YT had a bit-rate of 1.99 Mbit/s.

Now, I have another problem. Not only am I going over my daily cap, but over a majority of the traffic is upstream rather than downstream.
I don't think it's BT because I have not forwarded any BT ports for anyone in my complex. I can't think of any reasons why my upstream would be greater than my downstream considering most ppl just surf the web and stream movies.
