I remember (AOL I think) you could request trial CDs delivered to any address. No checks were made on either the name of the recipient or about the quantity of disks ordered. I'm guessing I was about 14.
Dad had to pay for a phone bill, but we got internet on top of that free of charge thanks to AOL. And of course, whenever we were done with one of the CDs it got taped to my bedroom ceiling, reflective side down.
