By using this feature, will it be using up my download usage in my Internet Connection?
How much does this actually download and upload as we speak and listen?
My internet connection plan has a download limit which usually exceeds before the month is over -
which makes it almost impossible for us to play WoW after we've exceeded.
Right now I am using a third-party voice chat program with my brother in the other room.
It doesn't use up our download and upload usage in our internet connection because it lets us connect to each other through LAN connection.
Is it the same with the new WoW voice chat feature when we make a channel or will it be using my download usage?
If not, maybe you guys could make it happen in a similar way?
Just a suggestion.
Thanks

The added voice chat bandwidth should be comparable to the basic WoW game traffic, but the actual total amount will vary depending on how much talking you do. Silent times should see no traffic due to voice chat.
I don't think we have released any numbers yet on the data rate of the WoW voice chat solution.
