Have been doing this since 1999

Since the days of Napster and MasterNap.
I used to connect to the TekNap.com (Nix program that was also ported to win to run in DOS by Colten Edwards). YOu can chat and download music with it. I learned all my scripting with it too, coded many a script for it. Nerdily enough I still SSH to OpenNap.net for IRC, TekNap and BitchX, and yeah I am too stubborn to leave "the Bitch" hehe.
