I reckon I use up my 1GB pcm every few months.

But mostly, it's just a simple f**kup on my part. Like, in December I went for a walk listening to a podcast I thought I'd downloaded over wifi - an hour of streaming later I start getting sms from O2 saying I'm about to go over my limit.

Without doing something dumb like that, I'm probably well inside the limits. It does mean that I've got lots of off-line playlists on Spotify eating up space, which I wouldn't need if I could stream them without worrying about data allowance.
