So Spotify just got a whole lot better today: Taylor Swift pulled her whole discography from the service.
I've been online since 1987 -- 27 years now. If I lost internet access here, I'd just go sit in a McDonald's parking lot or live at Panera Bread.
my review will come on sunday .
Where all the dag'um Interstellar reviews?
I've had it at home for about 15 years but remember using it in libraries in the mid 90s.

I'm lucky we've got decent broadband out here (half the speed that I was getting in town for the same price but still 30 meg) because, if the house was in a blackspot, I probably wouldn't have moved and sold the house instead.
I've only had the internet for 4 years though... only had a computer for the same amount of time too.
This laptop is 2 years old.

Suddenly no internet and I get the DTs.
18 days.

That's how long I was webless when I moved last year. Long enough for me to pity everyone who relies on their news by watching TV but not long enough (when BT mucked my order up at the old house I was without it for 6 weeks) where I was getting used to the idea of living as our forefathers did.

The internet is a strange necessity...
I was soooo lost without the web.

I kept thinking "I'll just have a look at *insert very interesting subject here*"

But I couldn't. I was just stuck sitting looking at a very expensive diary/photo album.
Aye, welcome back.
