How much does it cost Naira equivalent?

It is N500 weekly and one gets 100mins of call across all networks in Kenya, 500sms to all networks and 500MB. Even if one exhausts that 500MB within the first hour of subscribing, one can still Skype, Youtube streaming and downloads and other internet services till the 7 days expires. Obce opt for the 30 days plan which is N2,000 for 2GB, 2000sms and 400mins of call. Below is my balance and l have been watching documentaries on Youtube!

You are currently using UnlimiNET 250 Weekly Plan valid until 01-04-16 19:49. Balance is 0MB data, 16minutes to ALL networks and 484SMS. Thank you.

Hope this helps:

When you stream a video or music, the file itself doesn’t live on your device’s hard drive. It’s accessed on the internet, temporarily, while you’re using it. That’s why streaming is used by many sites offering free or rented content: you have access to it but you don’t “own” the content. Streaming is great for watching or listening to content on any device – your internet-connected TV, smartphone, tablet, or laptop. Streaming works better with a faster internet connection as you’re listening or watching in real-time.

By contrast, when you download a video or music, the file itself lives on your hard drive and takes up space there. This means that, once downloaded, you can use it again and again, and not have to download it each time. However, you often have to pay more for downloaded content than you would if you streamed it because you “own” the file. Plus, with downloaded content, it can be challenging to use it across multiple devices.
Out of point.

Streaming and downloading videos or music are the same in the sense that they both have to download the content of the file into your device, the difference is that, for download, it stores the content into your storage disk, which enables you access that content whenever you please, while for streaming, it downloads the content into your cache memory, and because cache memory(temporary storage) is always little or limited in memory space, your player plays the little your cache memory stored, after which ur cache memory wipes out d content and download another part of the content, and then plays it, and wipes it off and so the cycle goes, which is why @ some point, when the network is bad, it delays in the download of the other portion of the content.. When streaming, you do not get info concerning the size of the content unlike downloading and the quality of the contents are mostly not reduced thereby consuming more data. Downloading is better because most times you get to choose between content qualities which helps save your MB, otherwise downloading or streaming the same content with same quality consume same amount of data. The main reason people stream contents is because they either lack enough space in their storage disk, they can't wait for the content to be downloaded before seeing the content, or they don't wish to view the content for the second time.
