I like using YouTube to listen to music and to get stereo I have to put it on high quality mode I went through a Gb of data in about an hour. Is there anyway to get the high quality audio without the high quality video?

Enabling preloading can easily use that much data without actually watching anything.

Use a youtube convertor website on WiFi to get the audio for the music so you don't use a ton of data

I had to turn pre-fetching off. I had 9gb of YouTube data in just one evening. It was downloading videos that channels I subscribed to were recommending. Its definitely a data hog with HD on
