Project fi: reaps carrier benefits?

[joshyboy82]

I got the ball rolling(I ordered a nexus, waiting for it to arrive) on joining Project Fi, but since it uses the two services, do I inherent the benefits of service announcements? Example: T-Mobile doesn't data charge for 480p video streams. I know i can't pick which service I'm on at any given moment, but is it roulette that I can stream hulu without it appearing as data on my bill?

You don't get any of the benefits. Project Fi uses T-Mobile's networks, yes, but as a Project Fi customer, you are not a T-Mobile customer. Video and music streaming will show up on your bill as data usage.
