When I worked for an ISP I had a serial based Zip Drive (remember them) with the 100meg disks.
Anything I wanted to download that was very big (Quake patches), I used to get at work, save to the Zip disk, then take home at night. This was when I was on a 14,400 baud modem at home. We had quad ISDN at work which seemed phenomenal at the time. I was one of the first consumers (on the IOM) to have ISDN at home, but was so expensive as a dial-up, I could only afford to run one 64k channel.
