Video Bandwidth Usage Projections
I have someone who wants me to host his site. He has a video production company and will be placing videos on my server to show his audience. His site is new so his current host does not have any video usage reports to show me past history of used bandwidth. his videos range from 1 minute to 10 minutes on average.
I have a dedicated server with dedicated 10T of bandwidth.
Is there a tool that is out there that can tell me how much bandwidth would be required if x amount of users downloaded x amount of videos in a given period of time?
It may be best to stick these videos on youtube and just embed them on his pages. Your thoughts?

so if I'm allotted a dedicated 10T of bandwidth transfer per month with my host, I can easily give out 1GB bandwidth transfer per month per account. Is that normal?
