  • I'd like to point out that when your hard drive crashes, taking with it all your collected music files, it's nice to be able to turn to software like brag to fill up your remaining hard drive with more crap than you'll ever listen to.

    Unfortunately, however, my news server limits me to 1gigabyte per month. That doesn't seem like much, but usenet binaries are posted as text, which means they expand by a third at least during the process. So a 3 megabyte file becomes 4 in bandwidth. I hit 75% of my bandwidth allocation a few months ago.

    So, in the interest of sharing the wealth, give the maid the night off for 'The Maid's Night Off,' by the Hudson-Delange Orchestra.
