I used to download to get backups. This was time consuming and resulted in obtaining broken images sometimes. I bought the hardware to make the backups myself and have been dumping ever since.

If you're looking to archive your collection, forking over $20 for the right LG drive beats spending litterally DAYS downloading what MIGHT be a good dump.

Downloading with Giganews is just as good as having an LG drive. Do some research on newsgroups. With Giganews and COX Cable I can DL a backup in about an hour.

9Mb\per second over 10 concurrent connections
(Mb=Megabits not MB=Megabytes)
