I pay $30 for 6GB of LTE data per month (Rogers, via a promotional plan that they've offered countless times). And I generally use about 200MB in an average month as I'm virtually always around WiFi of some sort. Which is exactly what Google envisions, with most of their cloud solutions defaulting to only operating over WiFi.

SD storage has always been a mess on Android because it was originally added just as an easy way to port music and movies over. It was essentially supposed to be read-only memory. Then of course apps and users started using it and the ugly, messy history is notorious.

I'm not in Canada, but I do use Google Play Music on my commute (2-3hrs per day) with it's streaming curated playlists. That eats through a ton of bandwidth. That chewed through about 3GB last month before I had to stop listening while out and about.
