I can remember when I got a fast modem (I forget if it was 28 or 33 kbps) and felt it was now reasonable to download an entire CD, doing it in 6 or 7 nights (stopping it every morning to use the Internet for other stuff, restarting it every night.) (Wait, hopefully, that wasn't me that did that, maybe it was my grandfather ;-)
