huh. over a terabyte →[More:]
How much I have downloaded from usenet since I joined Giganews. Never had looked at my usage stats. I was wondering if I ever really downloaded greater than 25gigs a month and if not, I needed to get a cheaper plan. Looks like I average about 50 gigs a month and have hit around 200 a time or two. HOW? Sure does not seem like that much. Oh well.

Damn! I'm only up to around 200GB on Easynews. You're a champ!

I average about 50 gigs a month - but that's only because my ISP cuts me off for a week if I exceed it.

However, my ISP also can't track my useage for shit <knocks on wood> and the average is closer to 80 gigs a month.

DVDs, birdherder, DVDs...

Well, yeah, and porn too.

Holy shit. I use giganews as well, and since i have the unlimited plan, i never bother checking my stats. I'm averaging about 120GB to 150GB/month. What the hell??!? Where'd it all go?

Duh! alt.binaries.tv is where it all went.

That, and porn.
