I Did it …

I deleted my “precious collection of illegal mp3s” that I have collected over the year! While I was doing it, my mind suddenly flew into the beginning of mp3 files swapping which some of you might not even know existed long-before the emergence of Napster & Kazaa.
First, there was the newsgroup, that was fun. Then the ever-reliable scour.net that takes approx a day to download a 5mb file, not to mention days to search the song only to find that the seeder suddenly removes the share. But that was fine, because the thrill is to find a song that not a lot of people have. Then came Napster, but that was canned. Then Kazaa, Limewire , BitTorrents, (put your illegal download site here) …
But I know it has to be done. I have put it off far too long … so there it is. The most fun thing is, I didn’t regret doing it!
