Exactly, what the fuck?

You're just being pedantic for no reason.

>>55610335
fuck you

No peers are requesting seeding from you. Why is this such a hard concept?
>>
>>55610235
Torrents are useless. Direct links or gtfo

Say there's one seeder of a file no one else has on a really shitty connection and a bunch of seedbox users jump on the torrent. Why do all the seedboxes become locked to the same completion percentage?
>>
>>55610845
Enjoy your 404s idiot.

It's the trackers that connect you (your client) to the peers.

Dude what?
>>
>>55611788
I don't know about the "can only download 1 file a day" thing, but having to wait 3 hours between downloads (unless you pay, of course) is common

>implying torrents never die

Take it from someone who doesn't stop seeding torrents, they do tend to die quite often.
>>
>>55610235
put it on "high priority" if you want to seed it so much

the client is seeing that your connection is probably not worth it OR that too many peers trying to connect OR the tracker is shit
>>
>>55610845
>>55611825
A central file host is literally equivalent (or worse than) a torrent with only one seeder.
>>
>>55611839
Oh yeah, torrents can be better, but not always. There's quite a few torrents that I'm the last seeder on though, and there the occasional times where I have to stop seeding for a bit. I've seen a whole lot of file sharing websites remove files over copyright though.

Really, using more than one way to share files is better than just sticking to one.

I think you missed the point of my post. Compare these two scenarios:

1. Central server stores file. It serves the content with HTTP. If the central server dies, the content is unavailable.

2. Central server stores file. It serves the content via bittorrent (i.e., it acts as a seed). If the central server dies, the torrent is not *necessarily* dead.

tl;dr torrents are always better because they allow your file to outlive the central host, in addition to being more efficient
>>
The burst bandwidth of torrents is much better than direct download though.

If you have something really popular (like the madoka movie), you can torrent the entire thing in a minute, multiplied across thousands of people.
