Important note: This
page was created in Feb 2003 using open market pricing from Ituner.com and Playstream.com. Before you make any
purchasing
decisions, please make sure that the data used in this
example is accurate by visiting
ituner.com's and

Assumption #1: Suppose you have an average of 600
concurrent streaming audio at 16Kbps, for a period of month.
Capacity calculation: 600x16Kbps/1024=9.3Mbps.
| 600*16Kbps *
60 sec in a minute / 8bits |
= |
72000KBytes/min
or 70Mb/min |
| 70Gb/min *
60 min in an hour |
= |
4218MbMB/hr |
| 4218MB/hr *
24 hrs in a day |
= |
101250MB/Day
or 98.8Gb/Day |
| 98.8Gb/day * avg. 30 days per/month |
= |
2966GB/month |
Total bytes transferred:
395GB/month
Playstream.com/Others
cost ($.004 per Mbyte transferred): 395*1024*0.007=$12,150/mo
Ituner cost: $1,000/mo
