What in the hell you guys download to rack up over 80-90 Gigs a month? I am lucky to even hit 5 gigs a month during a good month. Geesh!
Have you even counted the amount of data that comes down in service packs?
I did a clean install of Windows 2000 (in before all the "well, you got a broken piece of software, don't blame me you have to download service packs" whiners.) Just to get everything up to snuff (not even downloading Media player 9.0) and only 2 driver files, was close to 500MB alone! This is just for a clean install! Service packs of 30-40MB each, security patches galore. The driver files were no more than 5MB!
It isn't all P2P people. |

| In addition,
I like to download the latest Linux Distro ISO's we are talking several GIG's. I also like to do remote backups of my Files to a server. This too takes up bandwidth. |

I am aware of that now. See above apology express as "my bad!"

| Not a problem but you gotta cover all angles before the "apologists" come crying that it's all P2P or gamers or FTP this and that. |
