Do you remember the first mp3 you ever downloaded?

The first song I ever ripped to MP3 was: Eve6 - Inside Out.
I had many MP3's prior to that, but that was the first I ever took from a CD to a MP3.
 
Metallica - Enter Sandman

I distinctly remember getting this 1st or second. Pretty Fly for a White Guy was the other.
 
Dang, I don't remember which one was the very first but I had like 5 or so. 😛

Man that was killer to run on my Pentium 75. Had to turn off the vizualization mode in order for it to not skip.
 
no clue!

but my first DIVX MOVIE was

THE MATRIX!!!!!!!!!!!! by FM4 *FREEMPEG4.

It was the first movie encoded in divx i think.. i still have it but it uses some old divx codec which dont work with the new divx and the quality sucks compared to the divx today.

First MP3 I've ever downloaded: Metallica - Am I Evil? (Couldn't find a CD with that song on it, and I jumped at the chance to download a "CD Quality" version of the song, compared to the crappy RealAudio version I had before that)

Encoded with the free Fraunhofer codec at 112Kbps.

Was on a 28.8 modem at that time, around maybe 1995 or 1996 using DOS/Windows 3.11... And the MP3 player back then was also made by Fraunhofer I think, called WinPlay3. Shortly after that the first Betas of Winamp (v0.xx) started floating around (wasnt even skinnable at that point and it crashed ALL the time!)

Wow that was a long time ago!!! 🙂 ... Took a long long time before there was such thing as Napster. All my downloads were through IRC and DCC! (Plain jane UNIX IRC too, not mIRC or anything like that) ... Connected through a Terminal program called Qmodem, no PPP or even SLIP, all text based! ... Sheesh, how things have changed! (I think I had the option of opening up a SLIP connection and browsing with Mosaic or Netscape)

The Internet was alot different then too ... Nearly no SPAM for one 🙂
