:D

The "uptime" is just my 'server' that I go via for internet access (it sits in the lounge, it's my 'router' if you will - it's a Linux box)
Stats are done by "Cacti" which you can get and use: http://www.cacti.net/
 
Ouch, these 100GIGs in less then a week...

I've been online for 3 days...

4.5Gig
 
I've been online from 23 March and I've managed a whopping 1.35GB. Not for lack of trying, min you, but my downloads are pathetic.

Edit: Did I say 28 March? *facepalm* I mean 23 March.

So several have downloaded in excess of 100GB, presumably with P2P. But if I'm using P2P 1.35GB over 5 days is understandable?

Well I can finally buy HD movies from iTunes, and to my heart's content. Added to that season passes for series in HD and there is a lot of Gb right there.

You need to stop thinking about piracy all the time, and start to think about using the services that the rest of the world are using.

I know this is off topic, and forgive my ignorance but once you have download HD movies, can you play them on a proper home theatre system to get the full benefit of sound and picture quality? If yes, how does one do this? Burn to DVD?
