I gigabyte of bandwith can disappear very quickly when streaming mp3. Lets say you have 10 listeners streaming 128Kbit mp3 on average.
128,000 bits per second / 8 = 16,000 Bytes per second
16,000 bytes/second * 10 users = 160,000 bytes/second
1,073,741,824 Bytes (gigabyte) / 160,000 = 6711 seconds before limit is hit.
6711 / 60 = 111.85 minutes
With 10 listeners @ 128kbit, you'd run out of bandwidth in just under 2 hours.
