my 3-6 hours was from a T1 to his home cable (and I should have said without
encryption).  This is entirely possible.  Even before, when RR was 2MBit, I
could get and entire 3 CD audio show (files totalling about 1.8GB) in sometimes
under 3 hours from T1 hosted sites.  sorry I wasn't more specific! :)
