When there are that many bad reviews on both Amazon and Newegg, probably not something I'd vest interest in.

This is the kind of stuff going around, people who call you and try to get you to install crap on your computer. They are just targeting people who aren't savvy. I had one trying to pretend they were from Microsoft.

Imagine some kid going around school just jacking these into school computers. You just make it easier to incite vandalism. This is a terrible idea, no to mention there are other ways to "pull" your data. Who is this to protect you from? TV show hack jobs?

Keep in mind that Windows 7 end of life date is January 14, 2020 so you would have less than four years from that date for security updates. Ofcourse mainstream support has already expired for it.

Well the advantage of having the physical CDs is that they are in an uncompressed format. So down the road you have some options on encoding bitrate or a newer possibly better format down the road. Also. might just have some rare out of print ones as well. Out of print music like DVDs can sometimes ...

Interestingly enough for low incomes households they can gain access to 100mbps for $30 a month which isn't bad really. They aren't allowed to actually give it away though. FCC allowed them to bypass state laws, but the state is fighting back. I mean come on, honestly you know who is paying for thos...
