Unlimited Data Subscribers: What apps are you using more now that you have LTE?

Yeah... I see Verizon dropping the unlimited data package all together in 3...2...1...

 

uTorrent

Oh wait, it was rejected by Apple. Guess I'll have to just use it on my Android device instead.

 

I'm using all of the same apps that I did before.

Now that you mention it though, I streamed the IHeartRadio concert last night on wifi. Should have tried it with LTE.

 

ABSOLUTELY NOT using streaming apps on LTE, are you nuts?

 

Personally I think the focus for the telecommunication companies right now should be beefing up the infrastructure to accommodate unlimited data, instead of making available speeds that while nice are also a little too much.

 

Actually, I think the point is that most of us don't go using bandwidth frivolously just because we can.

 

I'm pretty sure it was sarcasm brah

 

While I agree with you I don't think this will ever happen unless we get government intervention (not saying I WANT that to happen... a free market is good). If they can get away with charging per data package, they certainly will. We went from Unlimited data for $30/mo to 5GB data costing nearly twice that. I doubt we will sway back towards unlimited any time soon.

 

Just out of curiosity

Just to try, I used AirMediaCenter on my iMac and streamed a 1080p movie over LTE to my iPhone through the App. Smooth as silk, not even a stutter. So, I will definitely be using that. Also, youtube etc.

I have unlimited hotspot too for verizon. Will be using that for my laptops whenever I travel, or at work in a few spots where wifi isn't so good.

 

Those paying per GB are nuts.

Those who have unlimited will be / are enjoying streaming Netflix on HD - we are nuts if we don't use it ... (Until I'll get throttled lol)

 

Wow

 

So you're saying your productivity at work has plummeted since the incorporation of unlimited LTE in your life?

 

I still don't think I would ever use my iPhone to watch netflix.

If I'm gonna watch TV/Movies, I'm gonna do it on my 47" LED TV.

Not a phone

 

You can't fit that into your work cubicle so easily!

 

I would imagine verizon would probably implement a throttle soon. People are going to be raping their network with LTE and no throttle.

 

My data usage has not change since I got LTE a couple of weeks ago. I have had unlimited data since 2007. I rarely exceed 2gb per month. Most of my heavy usage is performed on wi-fi. Even then, it's either on my iPad or MBP.
