1.) I found tons of great music through Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
2.) I'm a poser and assumed it was a RATM shirt. Was Rage a publication?

Hell yeah, so it was like your version of prime MTV2/Fuse TV, maybe. For awhile, they returned to their music roots and it was epic.
I remember when download managers were invaluable. Leaving a download running overnight on trailer park internet, only to find in the morning that it had failed. Soul-crushing.

I look back now and remember how rewarding it was when that DivX file finally finished. “Hell yeah, movie time!”
