Use streaming Dawgy... less BW used so less cost. I was told that wasn't true (had been using pics every 10-30 secs) and then went streaming for a month and never went back. Seems the streaming uses the BW differently but I can't remember the exact details. I DO know the BW bill went down by 75% give or take.
Doesn't sound as if you need a huge setup to do what you want. And ANY form of vid survel will cut down the insurance rates. Don't spend 5k to get what 2oo bucks will do for you. Try it since it isn't expensive and then upgrade if you don't like it. Running out and throwing buckets of money at something is senseless. More cash doesn't always mean more flash.
