    If I watch football matches online on sites such as Justin.TV etc, am I likely to go over my 30GB allowance I have for the month, bearing in mind there are two heavy users of the internet in my household, myself included?

    It will depend on how big they are, and how long they last, and also what's left after the two "heavy users". You'll need to just figure it out yourself, as it will depend on how much you use it.

    Use a bandwidth monitor like DU Meter to see out how much a single match uses, and you should be able to answer your question from there.

    Don't think anyone here could answer that unless we knew how much the others were downloading and on average how many matches you watch. I wouldn't worry too much about streaming matches though.

    Well I watched the game, great result and all as we beat Atletico Madrid 2-0 ;)

    Checked up my usage on the Eircom website and I've only used up 4% of the usage to date so it should be ok to watch watch matches in future, looks like it only took up about 700MB to watch the entire 90 minute game.
