[T-Diddy]

[Adr3naL1N]

im with iinet, and i get xmas day downloads free but also a 10 gig download bonus added onto my additional amount of downloads per the month

[Chase_d]

iinet customers seem to be getting awesome deals lately - which more ISP's would follow suit.

think its time i switched over once we get out of our stupid contract :(

[YOUR MATE]

Just cued up how i met your mother (all seasons), robot chicken (all ep's I'm missing), eastbound and down, the simpsons, flaspoint, american chopper and a bunch of movies. Let's see how we go.

[DRKWRX]

you kunts are gonna slow the net down :lol: ......... time to load up some torrents lol.

[INSINR8R]

[YOUR MATE]

Adrian you got anything I plan on downloading anyway? Save me time and I'll just copy from you.

[flamo_damo]

Yeow, this and my super torrents account go well together...

[INSINR8R]

[YOUR MATE]

[Splat_man]

FML.

Normally i get ~600k from newsgroups
I'm only getting 40k now.

[nicecar]

terrible idea by westnet/iinet - im downloading from rapidshare at 20kbps, usually 500...

[XF Falcon]

do you guys hack rapidshare accounts or something, cos their limit for free users is very annoying.

[TJ]

Someone download married with children kthanks

[nicecar]

do you guys hack rapidshare accounts or something, cos their limit for free users is very annoying.

Nope i pay for it, mostly cause its convenient/constant speeds. Pretty cheap too.

[DRKWRX]

im getting a decent 300kb/s from my connection still!

[anton]

30 gig and counting... muahahah

[Brockas]

Someone download married with children kthanks

[Lonewolf]

http://i45.tinypic.com/34r69ud.png

Not a huge amount, but managed to get all the movies of 2009 that I wanted, and a kick start on a lot of tv show eps (top gear, west wing, etc) to stand me in good stead.

[anton]

my list is to long i got 12 HDD 10 of which are 1TB and full the other 2 are 500's and im looking to purchase bigger ones atm

i really cant think of what else to download, wish Dr Who - End of Time was out already

[SimonR32]

my terrabyte hard drive is about half full and most of my 260gb internal hard drive is full of ONLY GOOD shit

if anyone ever wants anything im constantly downloading newest stuff so feel free to ask to leach some stuff to your external hdd

[TJ]

whos line is it anyway

Who has those?

[Lonewolf]

FYI, ex staff member now works for IInet, says the international links are pretty much maxed out, 7 terabits or so.

[fourseven]

160gig wtf! tell me your secrets lol

I could throw a rock through my telephone exchange, and usenet ftw.

[YOUR MATE]

I'm literally 2 blocks from mine and I've only managed about 20 gig. Dunno how good the lines are around Forrie tho, probly shit. And the stuff I've been downloading hasn't had too many seeds.

[DRKWRX]

i started mine at midnight and have only managed 11 gig :(

[Autopilot]

I started at 9 this morning and as of now I'm sitting on 24 gigs. Speed through out the day has varied between 600kbs and 1.1 mbps. Main problem for me has been a lack of decent shit to download.

[jnr]
