Quote from Hyperactive :

You don't necessarily need torrents for that. Internet browsers like Opera can resume downloads with one click and with download managers you can continue the download in small bits. You might ask from your school or from some of your friends if they could download the LFS and burn it on CD too. A CD should be cheaper in the end too

Yeah I use a d/load manager called Flashgot, which is apparently like the best one you can get for Firefox, but it just stops downloading, and refuses to start again. I've also tried with the standard Firefox download manager, but that doesn't work either. As for getting a friend to burn it for me, I realise that I can do that, and I actually have asked a friend to burn it for me just this morning, but I just think that having a torrent file makes it easier for everyone, as they dont have to have the hassle of asking people to download it, getting cd's etc, even though they (as I do) have only 2 mb left to download.

If there is ONE thing that the devs should do, I think it should be to offer LFS Full Install download as a torrent. As a 56k user (don't blame me, I have tried and failed to convince my parents to get broadband), I am beginning to find it really annoying to have waited all night for LFS to download, only to find that it has failed at 95%. I tried again last night and it failed, making it the 7th time I have tried to download it, and come up empty handed. If LFS were offered via torrent, I, and i'm sure alot of other wannabe LFS players would be able to get the download reliably through a stable service that isn't prone to timing out, or failing because of a line drop out/disconnection.

+10 Download via .Torrent

Thoughts?
