Hi there,

I live in spain and on my mobile home park we are provided with 1mb on broadband via local internet connection, and some of the local village are connected. Someone said to me because i download music from iturns it takes up some of their usage. Is this true?

I have not been back to the UK for 5 years so i am not that up on computers etc.

Depends on how it's set up really, if you're all using the same backbone connection then it definitely will but it won't introduce too much latency and that's well within the limits of expected usage. If it's bad enough latency they can get their own connection, can't they?

Yeh, I'd say just use it.

If they don't have any proper bandwidth limiting to prevent one user using it all, then a) it is badly set up, and b) well they can get there internet from somewhere else if they don't like it.

iTunes is well within normal internet limits.
