The pipa (Chinese: 琵琶; pinyin: pípá) is a plucked Chinese string instrument. Sometimes called the Chinese lute, the instrument has a pear-shaped wooden body. It has been played for nearly two thousand years of history in China, and belongs to the plucked category of instruments (彈撥樂器). Several related instruments in East and Southeast Asia are derived from the pipa; these include the Japanese biwa, the Vietnamese đàn tỳ bà, and the Korean bipa. The Korean instrument is the only one of the three that is no longer used. Attempts to revive the instrument have failed, although examples survive in museums. (Wikipedia)

@ Chepa: Yes, it is a cheap way, as I don't want to go on the expensive way by paying the monthly fees to Rapid. This is my benefit, while your benefit is the cheap way of downloading a CD for free instead of paying for it. Fair business, isn't it?

Let's do a bit of mathematics. The size of my parcels is intentionally set to less - 28 or 29 MB - than Rapid's hourly limit of 30, so that you can download two parcels of it per hour. This is 56-58 MB per hour. Therefore at the beginning of the third hour you have all this stuff, and in the rest of the previous two hours you could use your bandwidth to other tasks, downloading from other sites, torrenting etc.

To me, with a real upload speed of 14-15 kBps, the upload of all this stuff costed more than three hours, in a way that during this time I could not use my bandwidth to anything else. And then we haven't mentioned extra issues of buying the CD right in China, ripping and scanning it, etc., which are entirely my problem.

So I think it is not completely unfair of me to require you to contribute with those two points per hour - instead of one per hour if I uploaded packages of 56-58 MB which would cost just the same to you, and for which nobody would complain - to the ten thousand I have to fulfill in a month to maintain the infrastructure necessary to this very commerce.

Of course if to someone it is "better to raise many cds and not only one in xx parts" then he, as a devote (or addicted) collector will considerate to either open an account with Rapid, or to recourse to the many well known tricks I will not dwell upon here.
