Whatever it is, I have experienced it before, a few times. Few and far between, I don't know why but my internat connection told me it was connected at like 100,000bps (not exact but give or take) and I could download things at unquestionable speed. I was using napster during most of the "speed bursts" and I got about 100 songs in a few hours. Maybe it was that compression figure Indy was talking about, but it was real, Very real.
There may be a glitch in the matrix but you can't deny its there.
