Sounds like something straight out of Half-Life.
I'll never forget the excitement of dialing up to play some rounds of counterstrike v1.0-1.3 and Half-Life. Nor the raging fury of getting disconnected whenever someone called when I was in the zone.

Me too
If the last part of the tone went too long, I would go

and hang up and redial. Fuck connecting at 33 or lower.

The noise itself was tone based communication via voice between your modem and the server it was calling in to. The option was always there to not pipe the modem sound through your speakers.

I remember not knowing how to get rid of the sound, and putting a pillow over the back of the computer when I connected to the internet well past my bedtime.

Early p2p with no file resume, disconnect when leaked song is at 80%
Of course, DCC in IRC and #mp3_* chans were thereafter discovered

I just remembered the time we got broadband. And then realised that its been installed longer than we had dialup

So it's just slowed down, right? Not pitch-shifted. That would be a cool thing to work with as well, and some tape flutter
