so you're saying if you have a faster connection you download faster. Ive heard that before somewhere.
Good to hear this is confirmed again.
how much are you paying for dedicated servers just to download stuff ?
then you need to FTP/transfer the files back to your local workstation.. correct?
thats kinda like downloading twice isnt it?
i think ill stick with the 20Mbps/20Mbps Fios for $55 a month.
a T1 connection is 1.544 Mbps

I seem to recall my server has 1000 Mbps. I do download twice, although a recent ~600mb show took about 7 mins at 2500-3000 kB/s (there were 100+ seeders). Using SECURE FTP, I avoid Comcast throttling and get 1000 kB/s from the server to my workstation. It took 18 minutes. So, a total of 25 minutes. By the time I had burned the show, I had shared it 9 times already (900%). I love sharing!
