Aaargh. I forgot to set Atlantis to download before I went to the stables for the farrier this morning. Bugger it.

D'oh!

Eeep, I don't envy you. My download is taking forever, and I started it at about 9:30. And some people already have it downloaded! So unfair!

My SGA torrents usually go quite fast - I'm currently on 66%. I love uTorrent - it has a great wizard for getting all your settings right dependent on your upload speed.

Hope yours speeds up!

That is so annoying! I have downloaded uTorrent for future use, but really I image it's more to do with the speed of my stupid bad horribly slow internets. We're thinking of changing to another provider next month. I dread the hassle, though.

My torrent has just finished. Hurrah!

Oh no. Changing providers spells nothing but trouble. But it might be worth it.

Well, I got mine from a Sekkrit Source, so I got it quickly too! How come ordinary downloads are so much faster than torrents? It's very strange.

I downloaded uTorrent to get the SG-1 ep, and I have to say it does seem to be really good. Of course, it's later in the day so there are more seeders and fewer leechers, but it seems to have figured out the optimal rates all right. Thanks for the tip!

Ooooh. A Sekkrit Source! I suppose it's the nature of torrents - you're using loads of different people to get it from.

It is good. The program is quite small too.
