Does anyone here ever listen to the Howard Stern Show?

A topic of discussion today was yesterday's 60 Minutes segment on the ever growing pirating of movies (interviews w/ Fox chief, M. Night Shyamalan, Grokster chief, etc - the clip's on Suprnova right now).

A listener called in and said that she had already downloaded & watched The Matrix Revolutions and LOTR: Return of The King. Granted, they were copies from Asia w/ subtitles, but they were supposedly in great condition, and when asked how long it takes to d.l. 1 film, she said "around 15 min w/ DSL". Her p2p's of choice are "Grokster or Morpheus", both of which I've never tried, but they use the same technology/search engine database as Kazaa, correct?

So here's what I'd like cleared up:

#1) I've always read that if it isn't listed on VCDQuality, it don't exist. -> Where is she getting these?

#2) "around 15 min w/ DSL". Still can't fathom that one - I've got DSL & it still takes me up to a couple of days to download a movie with the fast clients, K-Lite & BT & seemingly takes years with eDonkey...

Please shed some light.

it's true. china had revolutions and lotr3 a long time ago. ah, and we're still sitting here

To those here that are knowledgeable about newsgroups, again, I ask,
"Which newsgroups typically get stuff first, alt.binaries.multimedia?"

if this is so,I am curious why haven't bootlegs started filtering in on the European and American p2p networks?
online SARS quarintine?

The additional insight with every reply is what brings me back over & over.

There is a DSL connection-type-thingy that gets maximum dnl speed of about
25-26 MBit/s and an upl speed of 6 or so
if u have someone upl at 10-15 MBit/s its possible to dnl a movie in 10-30 mins

highly unlikely though
