This is my go to. Picked it up when I was in AUS for a while and it has never left my lexicon.

I totally forgot about spark.com, or was it thespark.com?

Back in the early 2000 area if I recall correctly. I spent way too much time answering questions on there in my college computer lab, then suddenly they added dating.

That’s good to know. I’m on a family plan with my girlfriend and her kids, so I haven’t seen ads in a long time.

I’m glad to hear this is beneficial to creators as well.

I don’t think you’ll be losing out on much. Their algorithm has gone to shit recently and finding anything new has become a chore.

This is so true. I had a 12 mini and upgraded to the 13 mini in December. The battery is better, and I plan on keeping this until the next mini phone arrives. (If any)

I have a set of lasers powered by them as well. Love that it makes the whole thing a bit larger and durable.

A lot of what I grab doesn’t have a lot of traffic, but I’ll grab and seed at least 5-10x on stuff like new releases to make up for it on IPT.

I’m on a gigabit fiber connection, so my upload on my seed box is about 5-20mbps constantly.

The big part for us is the multiple users, and not under a single home location.

My girlfriend, myself, her kid, adult daughter. That ends up being a fairly decent value proposition considering we’re pretty invested in Apple devices. There aren’t a lot of solutions to remove ads, and we take advantage of both the music and video sides of things.

I need to have a serious talk about this with my girlfriend. I didn’t realize she was paying so much for our YT Premium plan.

These prices are getting ridiculous.

Apple has a long history of being unwilling to bend the knee to govt requests.

I’m glad to see them taking a firm stance on this. I’m curious to see what the shareholders think if this happens, as one side of the coin is detrimental to their UK growth, but the other would result in their name being tarnished.

Can confirm. At least from someone there from 11 years ago when it was still fun.
