i remember i didn't have any access to the net till 96. then it was still a pain in the ass.

Mmmhmm. Was using Windows 3.1 at the time... good old Trumpet Winsock

I think the MP3s (or were they MP2s?) were from a fansite. It's hard to remember the details

Ill never forget how frustrating it was to download music via dial up. It was in late 98 when i fist started partying at the guv.

The tracks were Can you feel the bass and House Nation.

back in the day.

Blur - Song 2

A friend sent me it via ICQ over phone modem (56k), around 1997-1998. Was a 128 kbit encode. I was "blown away" by its encode quality back then!

Also sent me my first copy of Winamp about the same time.

man oh man! i remember joining an mp3 chatroom on irc & dissing them saying shit like "why download music? that's what radio's for!!!"

so i decided i'd see what the hype was about & downloaded some song by jewel "i was meant for you"

then when i relized i could get the albums BEFORE they came out, and could get good dance music from europe, i became an addicted whore
