waterfoul Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 What about the option to add a direct download to the list of "peers" where utorrent would grab data from it, this way you could achieve faster download rates while helping the swarm. I got the idea because most legit torrents, mainly those of open source softwhere have the options of both torrent and directly downloading from their servers which can be faster then going over bittorrent. You could also grab just pieces like all of the download accelerators out there but only have one active connection to the direct download Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
