If you are reading this you probably have access to the internet. Growing up I had slow dial up. I remember waiting so long to watch flash animations and even longer if the computer needed to download updates. Downloading files? Only if the file was small. Like one MP3?

Now, I don't remember when my family first got internet access. We got a computer when I was around 10 and I don't think we tried this internet thing right away. Eventually we got dial up and slowly browsed our way around. This song was the only song we 'bought' from an online storefront. My brother got some kind of free download somehow and this is the song he decided to get. It was pretty uneventful - we watched the file download and we played it and it worked. I think it left an impression on how the world was changing.
