Just for minor use, I'd easily use 10 megabytes a month.

But if it was available at reasonable cost, I'd have video running in the corner [or three corners] of the screen while doing other things. If I saw something interesting, I'd click on it.

I limit myself to 500 megabytes a month to reduce costs.

Judging from how much tv screen time people put in, I'd say huge volumes of video would be watched if the costs were reasonable.

Wireless service construction costs are currently about 2c a megabyte for mobile phone devices [see QUALCOMM data]. That's not too bad. Fixed costs are much less than that. There is OFDM, AirFiber and other service which can deliver large amounts of data in a short time and at low cost.
