Adopt a Queenzoner!

"My university has broadband, so I should be able to download quickly"

Ramses - even with broadband it can take the best part of 24 hours to download a concert!

i have broadband at school - but i wouldn't dream of downloading a large file from there..
Besides the IT systems manager would kill me, if i did.

you sure you wouldn't get into trouble downloading at Uni?

Well, I'm in UK so I'll take anyone in UK or even Europe at a push.

LOL...Don't worry...I've dl concerts on my cable modem and I know it takes 24 + hours. I consider that quick as opposed to several days to a week on a slower connection. I guess "quickly" isn't the best term, but I do realize the amount of time necessary.

Regarding getting in trouble...um...why? I don't know much about the IT rules simply b/c I've never tried to dl stuff. Is it an issue of legality or university speed?

Never thought about that...thank you for bringing it to my attention.

Its just I'm a teacher at a secondary school (11 - 18) in England. i have my own PC in my class room with broadband... but downloading for 20 + hours is something i couldn't possibly do.

It would come to the attention of the IT systems manager because it would slow down the system for the entire school.

Downloading throughout the night would also bring it to his attention....

Oh ok... I didn't know such activity could be monitored so closely.

I'm generally knowelgeable when it comes to computers...networking stuff is the one area I'm dumb in. Thank you for your help.

and also i'm supposed to be a "responsible adult" and i couldn't possibly justify downloading a Queen concert at what is, my place of work.

although instead of teaching those 'orrible kids - i do surf QZ a lot!

i recently got broadband at home (the torrents here at QZ, convinced me i had to have it!)

Gunpowder Gelatine, any offers so far on your "adoption?"

I'd like to be adopted, im from Lima Peru. thx

Ooh. Adopting. Fun. I don't think I've got a firewall ... at school (I hate US schools) I do, but at home, nope. :) Happy.

I'd like to re-bring this topic forward because, in my opinion, it was heavily under-rated.

I will always be grateful to the people sharing their bootlegs with everyone of us (look elsewhere the prices of unofficial recordings and say thank you!!!) and I'm very happy I could join in this trade group and get in touch with such amazing people...

I can adopt a queenzoner who doesn't own a broad band access... If someone is still interested, let me know.

To anyone who is able to adopt, do it, it won't make you rich or famous, but just think of all that love and good karma!

As the offical adoptee, I have to say that this is a wonderful thing, I've had a bank holiday weekend full of Queen thanks to Agneepath!
and of course all the wonderful people who put the shows up, thank you all!

I'd like to adopt one queenzoner, my mail is [email protected] from Chile, if anyone is interested please let me now.

I can adopt a Queenzoner, my mail is [email protected] from Argentina.

i am from India and even though i have a very slow connection i do have some patience so i wouldnt mind adopting someone or well wouldnt mind being adopted myself but since i know the reality that i am one of the few Indians here both might not happen anyways nothing wrong in helping out

I'm in the US, and have over 300 boots and videos. A lot of which are rare....so here I am willing to adopt someone if needed. Just send me an email.
