Depending on the OS, you will probably need to press some sort of 'connect via this' button somewhere.
get_iplayer - a highly recommended way to download stuff by pretending to be a iPhone - reckons a 30 minute programme is typically 113M byte in the low quality Quicktime iPhone feed up to 700M in HD with various other quality options in the middle.
Apart from that, it's "how long is a piece of string?" time. It helps to have Firefox running AdBlock Plus and Flashblock cutting out the crap, but speeds are highly variable. 113M bytes would be, ooh, about half an hour at 50k bytes (i.e. about 512k bits) a second?
I've got it for email, LJ and YourTurnMyTurn etc rather than trying to watch videos.
