Macabre Wolf, Gronomist was referring to the person who will be receiving CB on cd, not the person copying CB onto a cd... your understanding of it makes no sense anyway... the person copying it, does not have to wait at all after downloading it.
Also where did you hear 600MB?

I know Gronomist was reffering to the person \'recieving CB on cd\' so was I.
I heard 600MB from acraig.

Yeah, but you are talking about different schemes.
Seems Gronomist was talking about:
56k sends empty disc-> broadband makes copy on that one and sends disk back to 56k
That needs her estimated time.
Macabre Wolf seems to talk about:
broadband uses own disc to make copy and sends it to 56k -> 56k sends it back after install (and perhaps makes his own copy)

That depends on how you read it, I was reading it as if Gronomist was talking to the devs, you were reading as if gronomist was talking to someone that had downloaded CB.  It all depends on how you interpret the post.
So we\'ll leave it at that, or at least I will.

The current CB installer is 210,018,054 byte, or 200MB for the not so smart people, and I can\'t see how the music and the other smaller updates will take up 400MB. :)

Why are people so worked up over this? I mean, it will take longer on a 56k, yea, but deal with it. I have 56k, but you don\'t see me complaining or asking someone to help. Here is another thought: YOU DON\'T HAVE TO PLAY CB THE DAY IT COMES OUT!!!! Yes, you can wait a few days or a week if you must, IT WILL BE OK!! Go outside and do something. Run a bit, work out, go to a friend\'s house or something while it downloads. You don\'t have to be that addicted to the computer to not pull away from it...

Most people seem to like to sit infront of their PC\'s watching things download. Wish I had that much free time :P

Methinks this is getting old... :P And seeing as this has already been discussed before, it might aswell be closed. As always, if you have something direly in need of posting here, PM me and I\'ll reopen for you temporarily (if I think it deserves it).
