Post me a few blank CD's or a DVD and I'd bung on a bunch of episodes. How anyone can get by on Dial up these days I don't know. Once you have broadband the Internet suddenly becomes something worth bothering with.

I remember downloading full movies many years ago when I had dialup. 600odd meg used to take me about 6 days constantly on. Sure my parents must have got tired of having the phoneline tied up

Cheers.

I'll be right as soon as I'm back home. Amazing what primitive conditions you can put up with when you must.

Pats 20 gig limit

The sooner this unbundling takes place the better. Although I wouldn't expect to see anything for at least 18 months.
