Thread: How much did you DL when you first started using newsgroups?

  1. #11
    lol I need to pickup the pace here. I just started a week or two ago and have only downloaded about 50GB. After using private trackers for so long I need to get it get it through my head that I can take whatever I want now.

    You guys are MONSTERS! I probably do about 10-15GB monthly. Mostly t.v shows, movies, apps, and documentaries. I have DSL so I don't have the patience to download DVDs or HD movies

    My isp caps my downloads at 30gb, and when i first got premium newsgroups i used the 30gb in less than week. Being shaped back to dial-up speed for 4 weeks isn't fun
    And you know what? Macs are too hip. "Oh, look at me! I do graphic design! I wear women's jeans and hang out in coffee shops! I'm a DJ!" Well good for you. My computer is not a fashion statement. It's a computer.

    I download interesting PC games, HD movies, OS's and various apps and mp3s here and there. Other than that I don't break more than 200GB a month.

    There was a time I constantly had my 12MB connection maxed out while with TorrentLeech. I sat in the top 10 for most downloaded (I was above 12TB within a years time) and one day I woke up and realized that yes, it was like a disease as dasheeki mentioned above. I download the things I need now, nothing more and nothing less. Newsgroups helped me get out of that “ratio and stat counting” rut that torrents seem to be so popular with these days.
