This has been my first month of ADSL and I have to say I am quite dissapointed with myself.

I have 5GB peak, and another 5GB off peak allowance before shaping. Just went and checked my usage and i have used hardly any. it says "You have 2644.70 MB quota, and 4963.39 MB offpeak quota remaining until shaped at 64k"

So im wasting it, what can I download. what do you guys download... if you are game enough to say and its almost legal.

how do you use 36gig a month??? :duh

On Optus it is basically 1 gig or 12.
We have used 1.1 for the last couple of months and they hit 1.5 with the school holidays thrown in.

I have 2 teanage boys and one sub teenage and they live on it.

I have limewire, been "digitising" my record collection with it off and on. With dialup it was easy. search for 6 songs and start the downloads, come back in 4 hours. Now by the time I search for the second song, the first song is complete. Tis great stuff.

i agree about heather.......i mean, who`s that...la de dum
and as for what to download.........there`s the translation for the code "the usual" as in porn, movies, music and more porn.......but for sheer download power bittorrent is exelent, and if you have a deal with limits, your not trying hard enough.

yes...porn..mm...well..only at times..honest :p

haha nah we got dsl. i am only 18, brother is 20, parents are early 50's. and we download sweet f%#k all.

i used to use bit torrent. i just dont find the time anymore. im either out clubbing or partying or something or in the garage working shit out with dad.

i think last month we downloaded 2gb at the most.....i dont download much because all the music i listen to is not widely spread amongst the public..therefore not posted up.

Undergroup Hip-Hip is the devil if you believe in downloading music religiously.

but movies..yeah..there are some new ones out now..i think i must get some. games. i dont play much anymore.

i think i probably use most of my download limit from loading all the letters in these posts of mine which seem to ramble on at times.

oh well.

P.S, heather is talented but sylvia is much hotter 😉nn[ Edited on 1-8-2005 by 71superbug ]

I'd download more if I had the HDD space! Does anyone use BitLord? I'm sick of Limewire's "could not connect" readings on files it says are there to be downloaded....

i have no idea what the traffic is like at my place, my bf is currently starting a hosting business so we download so much!!
at least a couple of gigs a week, but we have no limits or peak times so we are lucky.
movies, games, programs (both legal and not quite) music, etc...
this weeks discovery was a mac emulator for pc. (this means i can run mac OS on Windows or Fedora.)
what i love is on the way home we will think about going to get a movie from the store but instead we find one on bit torrent or something similar, cook dinner and eat and usually the movie is ready!

if your looking for cheap hosting visit
www.xhost.com.au
(the site is currently under construction.)
or email or U2U me
