how much data will directv streaming take on average?
I'm considering the streaming option instead of satellite. We have 3 TVs on pretty much 24/7....or internet is 6000 GB a month. Anything over that is extra. Just looking for a guesstimate.

I keep my directv stream box on about 18 hours a day and use just under 2000 GB a month.

That depends on the bitrate the content is delivered at. You should expect somewhere between 2 GB and 4 GB per hour per viewer.
4 GB x 3 viewers x 16 hours/day x 30 days would be 5.76 TB.
