i remember trying to act all geek and talk about mp3s to this nerd back in 99 and that i downloaded 100 in the past year (lol) and then he suggested a "site" called napster which i forgot about completely that night itself and then got addicted to it a few months later

haha weird thread, but it got me thinking anyways...

My first MP3 downloads were all Nine Inch Nails, as at the time the unofficial NIN website was hosting ALL of their tracks. haha (hard to imagine that today) I remember reading the FAQ saying "what is an MP3", and I was so intrigued.

I ended up getting every single nin track ever (which I already owned on CD anyways) only to find that the record company finally got wind of the website and shut it down. What year? hmm probably around 96-97.

p.s halo 20 = nin reference, not the video game

like how the heck do you guys remember this stuff.

my first downloads were off napster but i have no idea what the hell they were. probably some hip hop.

Posted by Dancing*Queen on Nov-12-2004 11:08:
