Thanks to giganews all of my downloads use every last ounce of my available bandwidth. screw torrents, I'm sick of having a ton of ports open just to barely download anything or have it take DAYS to come through.
I have 8Mb downloads and I use every last bit of that. for keeping up to date with alt.binaries.tv newsbin works fine BUT what I'm using now is ninan on my linux box which is also setup as a web server so now my whole network can quickly add things to the download list so I don't have to sit in 1 place to do it. If I'm naked in bed with my laptop and can handle all the downloads without ever getting up. (limited speed and storage of the laptop makes downloading from that not so fun)
then with some mapped network drives its the same as having those things on whatever system I decide to use.
