Theoretically using Wowhead PTR there are roughly 10000 quests in the game. Let's assume that the average words per quest on the quest log before accepting, in the log and when finished is around 512 words per quest. This means it would take about 1-1.5 minute (for someone that reads well and not too slow) to read all the text. We got about 15000 minutes of speech in total, with a good codec like OGG you can get 1.5 minute of speech with mid/low quality into 256kb hence 15000 minutes of speech turns into 3840000kb ~= 3750mb ~= 3.7gb. Only question is how this would affect the game loading speeds, it would be a lot of files to scan trough at startup...

I may be wrong at some parts, excuse me.
