dontpanic42: VODO
Wow thanks for posting this. Its all completely copyright free right? I've just downloaded 2 >.> so I'm stuffed if it isn't Hahaha

It is not copyright free, but the owners of the works have agreed to be distributed by Vodo for personal use.

Most of the works I have viewed from there are provided under one of the creative commons licences.

This is a good overview of that kind of copyright: http://www.creativecommons.org.nz/choose_and_apply_a_cc_licence

In many countries a kind of standard copyright for all works is assumed in law - so that if an author/creator intends something different from the standard assumed copyright then it must be stated. It is the same for software, which is why all the free software licences are needed.

Thankyou for the suggestions folks. I already have internet radio going 10 hours a day, use Youtube and a bit of NZ on demand and other stuff and got nowhere near my limit. These sugggestions will help me start to get through it - I just have to find the time now.

rscole86: Can you downsize your plan, while getting the same amount of data? Use your spare money on coffee/movies/dvds or whatever your heart desires, assuming it is legal.

or just to even it out, spend it on something illegal.
