No, unless you're on a monthly capped bandwidth limit.

No, it won't cost you anything because it uses your Internet connection just like e-mails, browsing the Internet etc. Just watch out and check (as TOG said) that you don't exceed your bandwidth limit if you have one, as this may incur charges to AOL.higgie wrote:If using a voice activated web cam to speak to relatives in Australia will this cost anymore than my usual monthly subscription to AOL. :beer:
P.s. I presume you are using an Instant Messaging program like MSN Messenger or AIM.

Yes, because it is an Instant Messaging program (AIM) it won't charge you. You only start getting charged when using programs such as Skype to call a landline.0
