i have a dial up modem and so far havent had any problems downloading anything when downloading from t1, t3 or higher speeds, it is a little slow, but i expected that with a dial up connection...i downloaded two songs this morning using cable/dsl speed and they downloaded very quickly, but after they were finished i couldnt listen to them and they said that the songs were like 25 minutes long, im not sure why this was, if anyone can give me something to go on i would appreciate it...or, perhaps i have learned my lesson as to NOT download from that speed on dial up.
