Damn fancy pants, ain't nobody who can afford to use 700mb of potential storage for a 24mb installer and a crack with a virus. That's why 32mb USB sticks were invented.

We plebs had CD-ROMs from Bulgaria filled with software compressed to the max including both Flash and that Adobe program used to create flash content. And ripped versions of games where the audio and video was recompressed at a barely tolerable bitrate. Everything with cracks and viruses of course.

That's how I heard Oasis for the first time, "Champagne Supernova". Bundled as an MP3 with that dang music player that I can't remember the name of. You know the one that really whips the llamas ass? Yeah, that's the one.
