I absolutely love it! It is great.

But this is my new delima...I have to change my whole way of looking at the internet. I can download files fast as hell but what else can I do (other than porn [I know all about that])

Just downloaded Kazaa but haven't really used it so what else?

download ripped DVDs or movies in the theaters (low quality, but free) that haven't come out on DVD yet. download songs from bands that you like but haven't bought any of their stuff yet. sample the music, then buy the CD of course. download PC game demos. i do all of this with the slowest/cheapest cable modem plan, and it's plenty fast for me

i don't think i could go back to 56k.

I went from being the only guy in my neighboorhood with cable to a college LAN. That sucked.
Basically, I DL'ed movies, played games, and piracted.

after downloading the drift vid that was on zilvia that was 22 mins long and watched as it was downloading was amazing. I was thinking of just doing the whole music dl thing but have yet to find the stuff I like

better make sure you have a pop up stopper, youll get tons with being connected all the time

I play games, DL songs, music videos and TONS of racing videos.

I still think i'm being ripped off...45 dollars for 800 down 200 upload sucks :/

I did some research and got 1.5dl and 198ul and it hauls a$$. I think I will go to Kazaa and get some drift vids
