I hope that this web interface will not be bloated with tons of graphics,
frames, stylesheets ,
javascript, java e.t.c. And mostly that there won't be 10 pages you have to
step through
just to start a download.
The aminet download interface on the web is as perfect as it gets. It's small,
fast, effective and
easy to use. Sites like download.com is pure hell to use in comparison to the
standard aminet
interface.
