That would barely be of any real use at all. The torrent tracking functions do consume a certain quota of bandwidth still.

Indeed, that's the point.
In other words, we could have the floppy ver of Star Trek: Judgment Rites for direct download and a full CD ver available through p2p.
Personally I do not see us going the HOTU way, but dividing the distribution in two parts - smaller games and CD-rips go on the site, large games (over the 120~mb quota and full ISO images) to the Torrents.
Emule is right out as a method, because it's quite uncontrollable - once an archive finds its way there, there is pretty much no way to stop its distribution.
