Hi @John I watch netflix and my meagre bundle can still survive, what netflix does if you have a slow network (Like I do) they will not air on HD hence the data usage will not be humongous. another thing I tried playing around with the big Box, yes you can access the internet and may be netflix but it does not give the rich look and feel of a smart TV or a PS Console while accessing the on demand TV Apps. If you have a smart TV, FTA or Digital TV and an internet provider you definitely do not need the Big Box, you will access on line streaming TV seamlessly. Let us watch out it is hoped to be a game changer Regards Calvin On Mon, May 11, 2015 at 3:57 PM, John K. via skunkworks < skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:
6gb probably won't be enough. According to Google, Netflix uses around 1gb of data per hour, so a 6hr binge on House of Cards would wipe that bundle like a fat kid eating mandazi. And you still wouldn't have finished the season. :(

Most people are asking if the 6GB - 1K bundle for theBIGbox will be sufficient to handle say Netflix's
800(Netflix) + 450(unotelly) + 1000 (Safaricom 4G bundle) - PER MONTH SETUP
If it works then for 350+ channels it might be a good selling point. Anyone tried this out?

This will be a hot topic tomorrow when Safaricom finally launch this set top box (hybrid media streaming box). We managed to capture some detail <http://www.techweez.com/2015/05/07/safaricom-to-give-box-decoder-users-free-internet-for-six-months/>at the launch and it seems Safaricom is prepared to make a big onslaught in the home content department. What do you guys think?
