As I mentioned in the email to you, a clarification from you, and a chance for us to resolve the situation as mature adults would've saved us both time. As for your claim that I had caused 6 hours of downtime, either you're outright lying, or entirely mistaken and placing the blame on me. The only person downloading the tunes, was me to test the download speed. I had not given out the address to anyone while I was uploading the tunes, as I wanted to be sure they were even available when done. Then I had planned on building a web design with details about mashups, before I allowed access to the tunes. I sure can't do 50 hits a second, not even the Tunes page on this site got that many hits, even when it was linked on MetaFilter, Digg.com, GYBO, and numerous other sites in a day. Brian,

Also, he forgot to mention that he caused the whole server crash causing about 6 hours worth of downtime for over 100 clients because of his streaming music which is specifically stated as not allowed in our TOS. We noted 100’s of WWW connections that flooded our server at a rate of 50 hits per second. Thank you. We did give you a second chance on a new server.
