Hi everyone, I've got a torrent set up for the San Diego ComicCon mp3 that JustDavid gave us. Thank you!

Click here for the .torrent file:
http://tamara.spacemonkeys.ca/ComicCon.mp3.torrent

and here for the tracker:
http://spacemonkeys.ca:6969/

PLEASE let me know right away if you're having problems!

And Haken, feel free to add this with the rest of the mirrors!

ETA: BitTorrent always works best when people put back in at least what they took out. So if you download 28.3 MB, please stay connected until you upload at least 28.3 MB and that way it stays alive for the next people!

For those who haven't used BitTorrent before, the homepage is here:
http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/

It has a good introduction, FAQ, downloads, etc.

Thanks a lot for the download! I was having trouble downloading the Win Zip file available on the front page; as I'm sure many others are finding. I'll be sure to leave the torrent open even post-downloading it.

An ideal use for bittorrent. I've grabbed a copy on my server with lots of spare bandwidth and will leave it up for at least a few hours to help spread it.

I've never used BT before so it could just be my incompetance:

--I downloaded bit torrent
--I clicked on the link for the mp3 and it took me through the steps of saving the file on my computer
--However, the d/l took (literally) 1 second and only came up with 2 kb. So when I clicked on the file, my computer told me to select a program to use it.
--I then selected BT, but it just took me to a website asking for a donation and a pop-up that said it was successfully downloaded

I ummm... I've just been going in circles. Can someone help me out?

Sounds like the right steps. Do you have msn messenger? If so, connect with me cobraguy@hotmail.com maybe I can get you there using the remote assistance feature.

The BitTorrent is a great way to go. Right now there are 18 of us seeding and only 3 downloading. That means you'd basically get the file as fast as your connection speed will go.

Well, I eventually downloaded the file from one of the mirrors that was posted in the feautures. Thanks for the offer, though.
