Well, yes, I would pay a monthly fee to download, if this allowed me to download everything I want. But I really don't think that rightsholders would agree.
The problem is that the government will do anything to sustain the music industry. That involves wiping out the competition (P2P), because with P2P people can really choose the music they want to hear and discover alternative artists. They only care about copyright owners, not artists.
- Hotplugged IDE HDDs and CD-ROMs. Works only under certain conditions, but the hardware always survived:p
- Put a Pentium 100 CPU on a chair and someone sat on it;) The CPU still works fine
- Inserted a Pentium 200 MMX a in non-MMX Pentium motherboard (the voltages are different). The P200 MMX worked @133 MHz and survived.
- Overclocked the AGP bus @100 MHz
- Dropped a 60GB HDD from a ~ 1 meter height. HDD intact, no data lost (wouldn't try it again, though)

I'd love to, but I don't have the right to run any p2p program on this server (it's in the contract with my isp).
sorry to disappoint you, but the server is currently handling the charge very well:
:p
Current bandwidth utilization 41.86 Mbit/s
Of course there might be slowdowns due to saturated links elsewhere on the networks
Thank god I don't have to pay for bandwidth
via http
via ftp
the server should be fast enough
