Extrem data usage

Extrem data usage

My data usage was drained by Spotify by 238G in a period of a few days. How is this possible???

This is my calculation:
Highest quality streaming = 320kbits/sec
320kbits/sec
=40kBYTE/sec
=2400kBYTE/min
=14400kBYTE/hour
=3456000kBYTE/day
=3456000000BYTE/day
=3456megaBYTE/day
=3,456gigaBYTE/day

238GB/3,456 = 68,8657

So it would take almost 69 days of continous listening on highest streaming quality to use 238 Gigabyte of data usage. Correct me if I'm wrong and give me an explanation.

Hey @svai72! Welcome to the community!

That's definitely very weird! I've never seen this before, haha. Alright, let's reinstall the app. Let me know if it still happens after that.


Take care! 🙂
