The Relative Size of Internet Data

[SylphViper]

But an email...? That's assuming that the email is over ten words, lol....

As said below, these are very compressed formats that are streamed over the Internet, not how much space it takes up on your harddrive once it is slightly uncompressed.

Gave me a good idea--by way of an analog--of how much money the Marxist/Statist pig excrement is wasting of our great-great-great-great grandchildrens' hard-earned money. Obamanocchio, Immanuel, Pelosi, Ried, you deserve nothing more richly than to rot in hell.

figures are for VERY compressed files. no SD movie is 115 megs. a vid on youtube is usually 20-40 megs. a song on itunes is usually 5 to 10 megs. an HD movie is several gigs. and EVERY website is a rich media website.

IT'S OVER 9000!!!!!!!

1.4MB for a song? Wow most of the ones I download are about 3 - 6MB

Yeah this is all very wrong. The amount of data for many of these items are wrong. An HD movie? 900 megs? No way. Over a couple gigabytes usually. An itunes MP3? 1.4 megs? No. Probably around 4-12 megabytes. These numbers are all low.

the data is all wrong. i've never heard of a HD movie which only contains of 900MB.
