How much data per month do you use?

Since the 15th of this month, I've used 110.2 MB out of 3072. I'm a pretty modest data user. But I'll probably use a lot of data in July - heck, maybe even max out my data plan - because I will be taking two vacations.
It's worth noting that AT&T will kindly send you a text when you've used 65%, then 90% then 100% of your data plan.

Around 150MB per month. I've got WiFi almost everywhere I go and I use low-data apps (no streaming for me).
Last night, I enabled iTunes Match on my 3GS and downloaded the Complete Led Zeppelin. Only used 200MB. I was hoping to use more but I still have today and tomorrow to see what I can use. I'm at 928MB for the month now.
I have to wait till tonight to do any downloading because it's too slow in the day time. At night, I can DL a song in 10 seconds on 3G.

AT&T updated my data usage. I actually used 2721GB. I used 2GB downloading the Complete Led Zeppelin on iTunes Match last night!
On this last day of my billing period, I have now used 4790MB.
I downloaded the Complete Led Zeppelin on iTunes Match, deleted it and downloaded it again in two days plus several other albums. Just wanted to see what it would take to use that much data in two days.
Now that I have iTunes Match, I expect to be using allot more than just 500MB per month like previously.

Used about 440MB last month after switching to the grandfathered 2GB plan. Still trying to get used to getting the most out of it.

Around 600mb. Here in the UK I have to pay £10 for "The Works" which is a 1Gb of Mobile Usage/Tethering.

Do you not have wifi? You must have some home internet connection to match your songs from iTunes on your desktop/laptop right?
Of course I have WiFi but then it wouldn't have been nearly as much fun now would it? I was using that much data on purpose.

So, when you get a throttling statement, they ask you to use Wi-Fi?
Well, what's the point of having the phone of they want you to use Wi-Fi?

This is my first iPhone (got it about 2 weeks ago), which I'm finding to be much more enjoyable to use than my Epic 4G, so I've been using it a lot more. I'd also note that I spend a lot of time studying at home or coffee shops, and we have WiFi at work, so I use WiFi whenever I can. In 2 weeks, I've used about 350 MB, but I've just started using Pandora when I'm on the road, so I imagine for that usage to go up. Also, I just realized that Netflix on my 4S is much more stable than it was on my Epic, so I'll definitely be using it for those long cardio sessions at the gym!
