November 1998 â Audiogalaxy is created by Michael Merhej. Initially an FTP search engine, the Audiogalaxy Satellite P2P client would reach 1 million downloads in 2001. In May 2002, a suit by the RIAA would force Audiogalaxy to block sharing of illegal songs. In June 2002, Audiogalaxy would settle the suit for an undisclosed amount and make its services opt-in. In September 2002, Audiogalaxy would discontinue P2P services in favor of Rhapsody, a pay streaming service.
Younger workers average $24.74 per week on coffee while workers over 45 spend an average of $14.15 per week, a fairly dramatic difference. People under 35 grew up with Starbucks on every corner and are primed to spend a ridiculous amount on coffee drinks, especially specialty drinks.
Thatâs not much less than what the average worker spends to commute to the job. The Consumerist cites data indicating that the average worker in the U.S. currently coughs up over $20 a week on coffee, working out to a grand total of $1,092 annually. The average commute, meanwhile, reportedly runs $1,476 per year.
