when downloading multiple files i'll hit my modems max or at least 8 or 9 down. but that doesnt happen nearly enough for me to justify having to pay an extra 15 a month so i can spend less time waiting for these giant files to download

when consequently the giant downloads, by definition, mean a larger file for me to work with and each one in itself will probably take up enough time for me to keep busy while waiting.

i busted it open year ago (it's like 7 years old now) cause it was having power problems, so i dont think they'll take it.
