I never really found it a problem, considering I've never had a real reason to download a lot of things. I tended to just go play a videogame when I did.

And money. Because it costs a lot too. More expensive than broadband.

Well, how big WERE the files you downloaded, then? Iīve only downloaded vg music and roms on our 56k connection. Was long ago I did that, though.

Only costs a lot if you don't have unlimited access.

For some reason, Europe doesn't like the words "56k" and "unlimited" paired together.

Same here, for the most part. I think the biggest thing I ever downloaded was a video that was around 30 megabytes.

Would have taken at least 6 hours if you didnīt do anything else than downloading that.

My biggest thing was probably a remix than was around 10mb. Other than that, I donīt know.

The biggest thing Ive ever downloaded is a zip file with VG speed run videos in them...

700mb+. Thank the lord for broadband and 1000kb/sec download speeds... otherwise, that would have taken a lot longer than 1(1/2) hours

The biggest thing I downloaded was about 9-10gb (Full Metal Alchemist)

Took about 1 day

And I downloaded ~1gb stuff on dial-up.

Actually he didn't specify that the 9-10 gigs was over dial up but whatever
lies and deceit it is

It was some long DDR course film that I just had to see.

I've downloaded a lot of large things. It took me about 4 minutes to download a 320MB trial of Photoshop CS2 and about another 5 to install. The longest I've ever waited to download something was an episode of Family Guy which took over 3 hours and I had a fast connection and it was a T3 download, but there were very few host so that's why it took so long. I was just happy I got it though.

Biggest I ever downloaded in my 56K days was 20 MB or something. Don't recall ever downloading something bigger than that.

You have to remember, Dial-up is a hefty pay per minute here. Broadband is actually cheaper most of the time.

I guess they missed the 56k part.

Ailure: I thought theyīd know this by now because it has been metnioned before, on several occasions.

I believe that we could pause our downloads when we disconnected and continue downloading the next day so we might have downloaded bigger files than I mentioned.

That one wasn't on dial-up.

Else I wouldn't have switched to another connection
