Does anybody know if 2500Gb of bandwidth an extraordinary amount of b/w or is this quite normal for a fairly busy site of stills and videos ?
Thanks

Dependes if your are refering to the monthly badwidth of a website. If you are it is a a lot of bandwith used in one month.
DO you know how many visitors comes to the site? Do you know the size of the video files?

if you have videos on your site it is certainly NOT a lot of bandwidth for a fairly busy site. of course it depends what you class fairly busy, but 2.5tb isn't much

2500GB per month is OK.
Some adult hosting I've seen only give you 100GB per month.
Yoy would need to look at the terms for bandwidth just in case you go over.
Servage offer 5010GB per month which they work out at around 165GB upload/download per day

Thanks,
The site is using a lot of videos now approx 5 min clips. Stopped using MPEG and smaller for smaller WMV. Usual b/w is 2000Gb per month and I just had to upgrade to 2500Gb per month. I thought that was excessive.
OK I'll worry when I need 5000Gb.

Yep, 2500GB isnt a great deal, we are using over 10,000GB at the moment,
If your showing HD video clips then your bandwidth goes through the roof.
