Major Fubar 0 Posted June 29, 2002 hey guys, I have 1.5ghz bandwidth allowance from my ISP that has to be used up by Monday or it is lost (monthly allowance)... So what do you recommend I use it up on? Game demos? movie trailers? I need some creative advice! On a (related) topic, does anyone know if the US Army game we saw so many threads about is available as a download anywhere, or do you have to apply to the Army for it? And do you need to be a US citizen? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm on LAN with 2mbit so i'm downloading mods now. Otherwise films are a good choice it's pending on what you want. OR opf freaks: TONS of addons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FetishFool 0 Posted June 29, 2002 I don't know if you intentionally said 1.5GHz, but I'll just assume that you mean REALLY fast. I say download music. Or movies like crazy. Even if you need to buy a new hard drive. It'll be worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FetishFool 0 Posted June 29, 2002 Downloading movies is pretty legal. And the companies don't usually care. Movies contain advertisements. Like "A Fox Films Production", "Directed by Hairy Pusseei", and "Property of Crystal Entertainment". It's when you make a profit from these movies that makes it illegal.

The movie police arent going to come knocking on your door because you download a bootleg. They will however toss you in jail if you start burning it onto video cd's and selling it for a profit. So to sum up: Downloading movies=illegal... but it's unlikely that you'll ever be punished. It's like jaywalking. Fubar, get the Medieval:Total War demo. I got it last night and it kicks ass.

For instance, stealing... You go into a store and walk out with all sorts of stuff and dont get caught. Are you saying that it's all right then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
