[QUOTE="BillyGates, post: 86584, member: 25795"] I was waiting for this arguement to come up... :) reality is: 1. A customized MediaPortal/Torrent plugin would be a very small percentage of the clients most people would use anyway, so in fact wouldn't impact the 'life of a torrent'. 2. For popular torrents there's 100's+ seeds so again I don't see the problem. If one was concerned about torrents 'dieing' because of this client, one could implement some logic like, 'there must be 'x' (x=10?) number of seeds before this can be used' 15-30mins is long to wait when it's 10:30pm and you want to see something now... 1 minute would be preferrable. :) Why not? Hundreds of seeds? High upload rates? What's the problem? Do you have any other alternatives? Thanks for the input. :) [/QUOTE]
