Actually without a datacap it becomes quite expensive.

Purchase a modern AAA game on steam, they're around 30G. Instant 15e additional tax when downloading it. And that tax gets paid every time you redownload anything.

Also netflix becomes a lot more expensive. 50 cents per hour for standard definition or 1.5 euros per hour in HD.

there is a cap on the tax though, you'd basically pay extra on the first couple of movies (well, there isn't any netflix in hungary, so you'd be paying for torrents)
