That's a 3 MB web page. That would have taken about a minute to download with a fast modem. I used a download manager for stuff that large. Remember GetRight? 5/5 at Tucows!
Where were you getting anything close to that, outside of a T1 line?
No matter what I did or where we lived, 56k dial up in practice was a consistent 3.2 kBps download. 128 kbps MP3s were always about 3.5 MB, which took about 20 minutes to download per track.
I feel like those numbers will be burned in my brain for the rest of my life.
