The music that's too underground for you to have heard isn't going to download itself while I wait for my double mochachino.

If you can download it, it isn't underground enough.

This would be an excellent time to start flipping tables.

I'm tempted to go to the nearest Starbucks and do this. Just sit right down and start downloadin' - without ordering a thing!

If the coffee house management doesn't care, than it shouldn't be an issue. If they did care, all they would have to do is go into the routing table of their wifi router and block the connection. almost all wifi routers on the planet will allow you to block by mac address from inside the router. If that is still happening anyways the problem is with the coffee house that allows it.

You're assuming that they even know that someone is hogging that much of their bandwidth and that they know how to block it. Odds are the only thing they know how to do is to completely lock out the router and that would defeat their purpose of having it, which is to provide free to customers.

If they don't know what they are doing, then for legal protection reasons alone they shouldn't be running one. home routers aren't rocket surgery, and depending on the state, whoever signs the bill for the cable / dsl modem might very well be liable for any copyright or ... other concerns that get downloaded on it.

I think it's a safe bet that not a single person actually working at most of the coffeehouses has a clue how the wifi system is set up. Most of them wouldn't know how to turn the thing on or off, or even where it is, much less how to check the routing tables for high bandwidth abusers and block them.

I don't care if the coffee house management cares, I care because it took around 30 seconds to load the Google homepage.

People who try to fix their driving mistakes immediately upon discovering them. Look, I know you're in the right lane when you need to turn left, but you have 10 feet to do it in at 40 mph and it's not going to happen.

Apparently you haven't seen me drive when I am late for work.

Too bad the public library near me is a festival of screaming crotch-droppings, and I'm too lazy to head over to my school library today. Plus, this Starbucks is basically dead so it's not like people were hunting for places to sit.

(The two drinks for the few hours I was there were admittedly more than the bus fare for the round trip to and from my school library, but the commuter bus is slow as hell after everyone is already at work, and @#%^ looking hunting for parking)

You're giving them far too much credit here. Most people don't even know how to change the base admin login password. Let alone set up a passkey that is encrypted higher than wep, which with enough traffic on the network can be broken with relative ease, see: Aircrack.

I can't begin to tell you how many hotel routers I've gotten into on a whim that they were stupid enough to not change anything. Hell, even the Verizon store I used to work next too didn't even change the default login/password. They at least had a web based login to use the wireless but still, once I got into the router that **** didn't even matter.

FM radio is too mainstream for me. They need to be bootlegged from live basement sessions.

I get free refills at Starbucks as long as I don't leave, and am just drinking coffee. :3 One cup is expensive, yeah, but it's not so bad if you are there for hours. Cheaper than anywhere else but home.

I listen to FM but it's transmitted by HAMs.
