I wonder how many are actually stored in order to make them available
for download? Maybe two dozen master/backup copies? The domain name
system manages to survive with a mere thirteen root name-servers.
Can you explain to us how copying and storing two dozen large files
takes more energy than manufacturing and storing millions of DVDs or
flash drives?
Can you explain to us how downloading millions of files takes more
energy than delivering millions of DVDs or flash drives?
> it. Not to mention the time you waste having to wait for it to download
Right. I have no life apart from your computer, and I have to suspend
even that when something is downloading. And since that is not
acceptable, I will instead order a DVD or flash drive and wait two weeks
for delivery.
You have DEFINITELY lost me on this one.
