Reception

gollark: I'm glad you provided this useful link.
gollark: I mean, altering the orbit of the earth could work, but is slightly hard.
gollark: Unfortunately, video needs waaaay higher bitrate to be stored reasonably. The 8MB shrek thing is very poor quality.
gollark: Simply don't buy them, as they're bad.
gollark: 92 days of music at a reasonable (for listening, not archiving) bitrate of 128kbps.
