IIRC, we first got DSL when I was just leaving junior high. Or maybe when I was a sophomore. I really don’t remember when, but when I was doing most of this downloading, it was on DSL. When we still had dialup, I couldn’t even reliably play UO all weekend (first-world problems, AMR?), because we only had 1 phone line and someone would eventually need the phone.
Yeah, downloading on 56k was not fun. My average per song was 1 hour, which I thought was decent considering it was free. My house got an additional line just for internet.
We eventually got a coax modem, I was at high school at the time when we went high speed too. I felt like I was in the future. Lol.
What I missed was losing access to AOL sites though but now that I look back, those were kinda trash.
Hehe reminds me of my Hide macro. I would make it bow 3 times and say “Kal Ort Por” before hiding, so people would think I teleported away when being chased by PKers in Felucca. 🤣
If you don’t mind me asking, were you on dial up, DSL, or coax?
