Torrents are active too, I get ~300 kB/s down ~40 kB/s up.

It's a shame we're still stuck with perl 5.8.8, 5.10 has been around for
a while now, and I guess php 5.2.6 missed the release by hours

I read usenet and lists in pine. But m$ outlook, thunderbird and gmail
often use html span/whatever for quotes, makes it hard to tell who said
what, so I dont try. If I ignore you, thats why! Use a compliant mailer.

Amazing the amount of bandwidth people have these days!

The usual practice was to run torrents to take the initial
load and much later fall back to ftp, http, etc.

More like "the recent usual practice". Ftp used to be the
only method, until http came along in the early nineties. It's
relatively recent that torrents has come along.
