I can't believe how long it used to take to download a song... man, 56K was some terrible, terrible times. If you didn't grow up experiencing it, be thankful, very thankful.

Yup. There was this BBS in some other state... Illinois I think it was called Cloud 9. The only adult BBS I could find that didn't require a driver's license for access. I called that shyt EVERY night at like midnight and downloaded my allotment. Did that for a month before dad came at me with a $600 phone bill.
