Has anyone that has a dial-up modem had trouble getting Shiloh's new website? It takes forever to download on my computer. The site really looks good. I still can't hear any music.

I think they did an awesome job with the new site.  I've got DSL and it took about 30 seconds to download  :)

I have a DSL connection and the Shiloh site took just over 30 seconds to load.

It's a great, classy-looking website.  There are closeups, animations and of course, the Quigley soundtrack.  The Shiloh site is more of an 'experience' than an online catalog - and I'm sure that's just what they intended it to be!

If I had one complaint it would be that the site is a bit overdone.  They must have assumed most people have DSL connections.  It would probably take several minutes to load even with a good 56K dialup connection.  That might cut the traffic to the site a bit as I'd bet a majority of users still use dialup connections.
