Too Much Rugby, So Little Data Usage

[Scan]

I was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem I've been having.

I'm a rugby nut and watch as much as I have time for but I haven't had Sky Sports/ESPN/Setanta for well over a year now coz they were too expensive. Luckily, I found this and other sites to get my weekly rugby fix but I have to keep to a monthly internet usage limit.

I don't know what it's like for other peopel but I have an internet plan where I can only use 25GB a month. That would be plenty if I didn't live in a house with 4 other people so I can only fit in about three matches a week. That was grand until this weekend where there was:
Ireland-New Zealand
Australia-England
Argentina-Italy
and
Wales-Australia (as well as JWC, Pacific Nations Cup AND IRB Nations Cup). And I only had 2GB left! I was never gonna watch all of them but I had to miss the Wales and Italy games and the PNC (which is great rugby).

I doubt anyone has a solution, but if anyone knows a way of getting match downloads compressed before downloading them (I'm sure I downloaded a Top 14 game once that was only around 300GB) or if certain streamers stream matches in a smaller format, I'd REALLY appreciate it.

Get unlimited broadband is the way!

Ya tbh that's the only option. Contact your ISP and ask them if you can make a good deal. Shop around to see what's available.

i download stuff at work to an external, then watch it at home.

Does your work know that?

Even when I was on 70 gig ...I would suck that up in week.There's no getting around it. You need to find a better isp with unlimited download. Or head to your local hotspots.ie 24hr MacDonalds and sit there and download.
