Packet loss or disruption?

In an enterprise, when you have 2 internet lines(both of which are used) terminating in 2 different Data Centers, what happens when you shut down one of the internet line on the gateway (Internet) router? Assume 30% of the traffic uses this line. iBGP runs between the 2 enterprise gateway routers.

I am specifically interested in how skype, vpn, applications and lets say a file upload/download to the DMZ for e,g will get affected.Will skype/vpn user gets disconnected or just freeze and reconnect? What about file transfers?

Will this be considered as packet loss or disruption?
