I once spent a night on vacation copying all the floppy disks for Project Chicago (alpha of Win 95). It was like 50 disks.
Piracy having to occur in person was a short lived thing. Though even at that time BBSs were a thing, but I can’t imagine how long that would have taken to download.
Please insert disk 10/12
Windows 95.
Disk 13: General failure reading disk
Me: Who the fuck is General Failure and why is he reading my disk?
