| How about a 350MB version? 750MB for something watched once is a waste. | |||||

b07ab0e4 Get an account at thebox.bz or uknova and download their 624x352 @1000Kbps Xvid files. The files should be small enough for you but both sites are ratio sites so you'll need to seed them back to maintain your ratio. |

(better late than never?) Message received, thanks for the info. I'm a veteran P2P'er, so the technical aspects are not new to me, it's just that I just don't bother downloading as much as I otherwise would if the filesizes were more appropriate for 1 time (not the police) viewing. Honestly, I'd be happy to watch most things @ 175MB/hour where properly encoded if that was available, but it seems these days release groups are intent on pushing the filesizes up and up due the arrival of HDTV and, I guess, the arrival of high-bandwidth ISP connections (for the few that can get them). I'll investigate the options you provided there, thanks again. |
