WOAH
That speed is insane!
If I could have that speed I could download a blu-ray in 10 minutes!
WTF are you talking about?

His speed: ~12 MegaBytes per second
Blu-ray size: ~50GB/50,000MB

50,000MB / 12 MBps = 4166.67 seconds = 69.44 mins = 1.16 hours.

Anyway, that's STILL frikkin fast. My school has half that speed, and they're in the US's 98th percentile, and my state's 99th percentile.

Here's mine:

And I pay $15 a month for that POS! I even have frikkin bandwidth caps!

... Which program do you use for downloading O.o
Depends what OS I'm using. uTorrent for Windows, Transmission or uTorrent for Mac OS X, and Transmission or Vuze for Linux. It doesn't make much of a difference, everything downloads in minutes regardless

EDIT: @Fishaman P
A single layer Blu-Ray is only 25GB. Which would still mean downloading a full Blu-Ray iso might take a while, but usually they would be rips regardless, and compressed, resulting in around 8GB file sizes.

Sigh... Our ISP promised an increase from 8 to 20 Mb/s, but somehow it halved >_> And we still have to pay more for that crap.

At school I've got like 80 Mb/s down and 40 up, though.

    I hate ordering stuff online if I can go buy it somewhere close to me, and everywhere anymore will give you a discount only if you order it online, bs. Should be a discount if I go pick it up, not order online.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

    Makes it easy for incompetent restaurant staff that don't know how to hear an order
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.
