Forums unavailable from ~2:05 am-2:10 am

I'm doing a backup of the website tonight and had the forum database busy from approximately 2:05-2:10am eastern time so the forums were unavailable during that time period. Sorry for any inconvenience.



BTW - interesting statistic - the TDR website content alone (not including any of the operating system or other system applications) in compressed format came to 1. 7GB! That's a lot of information!! I'm backing it up to my local hard drive for an off site backup and on my 700k connection it's going to take nearly 6 hours to transfer it all.

Winmx... ... ? I'm using XP if that's what your referring to. Every CD I own is on my hard drive. ( Almost 300 CD's ) All the rest I have downloaded from various P2P sites. I haven't purchased a CD in over 3 years... ..... Gotta love the P2P music sites.

Sorry, couldn't figure out what you meant..... I mainly use Kazaa though I will check out WinMX

Note: I used the lowest compression possible for all the CD's so I am using more space than neccessary.

well now that we have taken this thread WAY OFF!!!!!

I see. I do not buy cd's anymore from big "multi-million" selling artists anymore either. I DO buy artists that are NOT that big, who do not get much radio support, i. e. Dale Watson.
