Before anyone gets on their high horse about WAREZ . This has nothing to do with it!

N.B. BitTorrent itself is not illegal, neither is using it, and no-one is going to come kicking down doors just because you have it installed on your computer. Only the actual act of obtaining copyrighted material is. (Which is what abandonware is anyway)

Has the site ever considered using BitTorrent for it's downloads? Or at least giving the option of it instead, like some other sites do (HOTU does on some of it's games..... I think)

And wouldn't this help solve the problem with some of the larger games / files being only for VIP members, and also reduce server costs?

Sorry if this question has been asked before, but I did do a search for BitTorrent beforehand - it brought up 4 pages of forum stuff, none of it to do with BitTorrent? :crazy:
