What is bandwidth?
Bandwidth is the amount of data transferred from Buzzsprout to your listeners when they download or stream your episodes. Every Buzzsprout plan includes 1 TB of bandwidth per month. Here we'll explain how to track bandwidth usage and what happens if you exceed 1TB.
Tracking Your Bandwidth
You can track bandwidth usage in your Buzzsprout account. From the Home page, find the hours link next to the Upload a New Episode button. Click that link, and you'll see your current allowance and bandwidth usage for your cycle.

How Is Bandwidth Billed?
Monthly plans include 1 TB of bandwidth per month, and annual plans include 12 TB per year. On an annual plan, you can use that bandwidth throughout your plan year. This is plenty for most podcasts!
But, if you go over your included bandwidth, additional usage is billed each month. These will be added to your monthly invoices; you won't need to purchase it ahead of time.

Additional bandwidth is rounded up to the next full TB. The first 10 TB beyond your included allowance cost $15 per TB, and any additional bandwidth after that costs $10 per TB.
