Had quite a long meeting about this essay. Finally, instead of looking like a blob of 4000 words, it looks like 4x1000 words, which is a lot more comforting.
@jussipekonen The only type that irks me is when people cheer on those live shows when a singer hits a high note. It's developed a voice-killing culture of every singer trying to top the last for high notes.
Fortunately, most live classical recital/opera recordings have the right kind of audience.

VPN seems to be working fine now. Really confused as to what the hell's going on. Those infuriating moments of testing suggest that it's not my own equipment at fault; it's either Virgin that had a few minutes of random fuckups, or Trust Zone.
@matigo The reason I chose Trust Zone is because they explicitly state that they don't block P2P, and that the bandwidth is unlimited.

Am I going to regret going with Trust Zone? This is the umpteenth time it's given me ridiculous connection problems. If a VPN can't work 100% of the time, it's no good to me. Cloak connects at the moment, but Trust Zone with Tunnelblick Just Won't Work. Unacceptable.
Actually the coffee bill wasn't particularly low either…and I don't even drink in coffeeshops that much. Whew.
