I have 8GB a month but I rarely get anywhere near using it up. I don't download films or albums ever, let alone when I'm on wifi and not using data. Most of the places I go to in the UK and Europe have good 4G and I use it with gay abandon, both on my iPhone and on my iPad, which I tether to my phone. It's great for googling, using maps and finding out what's going on locally, not to speak of FaceTime, which I use quite a lot (it does eat data, but because I don't use other data-devouring things it's OK). Oh, and Mudcat. If your data usage worries you, you can get apps that will monitor it for you. At present, I can use my phone minutes and data in Europe as though I'm at home. Long may it remain so! Just don't forget to turn off the tethering, aka personal hotspot, when you've finished with it, otherwise you'll find your battery running down fast!
