[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 1030287, member: 21101"] No you won't. It's easy to work out the file sizes accurately if you need to. An SD show will be 1,500 kilo bits per second for video + 128 Kbps audio. So 1,628 kbps in total. Divide that by 8 to find kilo BYTES per second, which is 203.5 KBps. Multiply that by 60 for minutes then 60 again for one hour, which equals 12,210KBs and 732,600KBs respectively. Then divide by 1024 to get MBs for an hour to and you get 715 MBs for an hour show. One little thing is that Apple now measure a MB as being 1,000 KBs and a GB as being 1,000 MBs (as opposed to 1,024) but the figures don't change enourmously at this level. HD shows are more or less 4,500 kbps plus 160kbps audio, so: 1 hour = 2GBs give or take. Same figures as Bobtomay more or less, but this is how they're calculated. /geek :P [/QUOTE]
