Reminds me of the days of streaming video over my 56K modem with Realplayer and downloading a full CD from Napster over the course of an hour. That was the future. Today's kids with their 1080p YouTube videos and 2GB game demos. grumble grumble
And yes, I'm 27 :P
- Periodic 17y agoVarious speeds of modems didn't really seem to make a huge difference for me. It wasn't until I went to a LAN party at a friend's house with cable. Since I could download music at 18kBps I could actually listen to it as it downloaded! That meant I didn't have to waste all that time downloading something I didn't like. What would be next? Radio on the internet? video? The world changed for me that day.
