What's even worse is when a torrent is stalled at around 94%, there's exactly one seeder with a full copy in the peer list, but he has fucked up networking rules (or an intentionally choked upload because he's a dirty leecher) so that despite having an open connection in the peer list, they never send any data...
This seems to happen alot. I always wondered if it is really a peer or some weird spoofed peer that just tries to give you hope before crushing your dreams.
What does the 0.1% of the file contain anyway, if it's a video and most of the data is there it might be either playable or if not it probably might be able to be repairable so it can play, albeit with minor corruption in the damaged part.
Video files can be played with as little as 5% downloaded, so long as the header and footer are complete
The header and footer? Possibly, if you knew the technical metadata of the file. Codec, bitrate, all that jazz
No it's not. You try wating for an hour with your dick in your hand edging while waiting to see some serious... ahem... debates over global warming.
I edge the whole time and only release once the post debate analysis begins.
