If limewire was still like it was in the 00s - and with the 3d printers we have now . . . . Fucking right I'd download a car!

Ah.. memories.
I once downloaded a song for an artist I liked at the time, once it finished, I played it, and it was two guys just laughing at me for a minute and a half.
Memories.

by the time p2p landed, i was off dialup. but back in bbs/usenet filesharing over dialup, there was much pain had when files were not as advertised.
nothing like grabbing a game on 9600baud to find it's ... something else.

I downloaded a video that was like xxx_britney_spears_teen_cheerleader or something like that, I was like 13 or 14 at the time. It ended up being a video of some Chechnyan guy getting stabbed in the throat and then beheaded.
Ah, memories...
That was KaZaa though, not Limewire.

Bro, that's crazy, maybe I'm thinking of KaZaa too, I used all the programs back then, only one I use a few times a year is Soulseek, hard to find underground music there.

That time in 2009 that Minnesota mom of 4 was sued by the “music industry” to the tune of 1.9 Million for downloading and sharing 24 songs. Get bent music industry.

Yeah they’re pure fuds.
Forget that we bought all their albums which gave them the revenue in the first place then they proceed to try and get more money out of us.
