7 minutes here, their upload speed was not nearly enough to saturate my connection by a longshot.

But lovely book to get for free, so thanks for that tip.

Holy Mackerel, Monkey, you have a 40 or 50 Mbps connection?!?
Catlady's must be around 25, and David and I must be crawling along at 10Mbps.

10 is correct for my office, so the math seems to work.
David, how fast is your connection supposed to be? They seemed to serve it to the Monkey and the Cat a lot faster.

My computer is showing the connection as 54 Mbps.

Your actual Internet speed at any given moment can be checked fairly reliably at speedtest.net.

What speed service do you pay for?

BTW, when you say your computer is showing 54Mbps, do you mean the networking icon in the system tray is saying that when you hover the mouse over it? If so, that's the speed of the local connection to your router (sounds like a wireless speed to me.)

Oh, and I started listening to the book on the way home. Intro by Ray Bradbury. Interesting.

Yeah, my estimate for the download is close to 4 hours....

I pay for 25/25 Mbit, but I get 100/75 Mbit based on speed tests (Fiber connection, ~20$/month), which is why I commented that their upload must be slow. I usually easily get 5x the speed i had here when downloading things.

When it comes to internet speeds, the US trails quite a few countries.

I missed it. Checked on Monday and again yesterday when it wasn't working. Now it says the offer's over.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Here's a link for those who might want one. Of the nine titles, four are novels: Dolores Claiborne (9 hours), Misery (12 hours), Insomnia (25.5 hours), and Gerald's Game (13.5 hours). Four others are long novellas/short novels (6-9 hours each), from the collection Four Past Midnight. A fifth is four unabridged selections from the collection Skeleton Crew, totaling about 5.5 hours.

Audible has lots of Valentine's Day freebies for us. 7 total, all less than three hours. These are probably not titles you've heard of before - a pretty eclectic collection. They are probably only available today so if you are interested don't delay in getting them right here.

Enjoy!
