And they wonder why we torrent
So today I was wanting to watch the next series of Doctor Who, so I go on piratebay look up a torrent blah blah blah, but I didn't want to wait.
And i had an itunes gift card from somewhere thats been gathering dust for quite some time.
I go on there and figure "hey maybe it'll be a bit faster, afterall I'm paying good money for this service."
NOPE!
This download is slow as a fucking snail. I'm not an expert on how or why this is slower, guessing it has something to do with not using the seeding method.
I used the ping test website while this was downloading, speeds are normal if not better.
Now I learned paying for shit doesn't have ANY advantages at all, besides safety(which has not been an issue for me).
This is going to be the last time I ever buy something that can be torrented instead.
