Could we make new torrents of the boc/afx/squarepusher live compilations, adding the actual mp3s to the torrents instead of just single zip files?
We don't all live on T1 lines, like the compiler of these torrents, and a lot of us already have a good deal of the stuff that's included within.
It's my opinion that if the torrents are kept the way they are, they (and perhaps the tracker) will become redundant.

yes i think it should be seperate files and they still could be in one torrent (you can upload a folder and download one out of the many files in utorrent)
also they should have need formatted file names like which artist-where-date (maybe they are)

exactely im not going to START FROM SCRATCH when we have plenty of people downloading and seeding
that does not make sense to start back at 1 seed when it's a 4gig file
you're cable modem has a greater downstream throughput than ds-1/t1 line anyways... so wtf.
the tracklistings are out there in my other thread if you just want one or two of the live sets, search soulseek and youll find it.

you can make a new torrent for the folder and let people redownload the torrent file, if they point it to their folder it will start seeding it

yeah it'd be one torrent, multiple files included within.
no need to get loud and rude..
and yes, it would make more sense, in my opinion, to start from scratch. it's looking to the future instead of just the short-term. these torrents, however valuable they are, are pretty useless in their current state..

the best argument for btw is, you can keep it seeding and listen to it instead of just wasting gigs seeding

how hte fuk are they pretty useless in their current state?
you still have to download the whole fucking torrent before you can use any of the files
there's only one extra step in this way and that's to unrar the fuking file then delete the rar
i realize you can do a "folder" torrent, you don't have to keep re-iterating that.
im not going to kill this and make all the people seeding have to restart or go thru the process of pointing to their folder
if you dont have the extra 4gb to unrar the files then buy a mac

Youre not getting it elusive, thus I will hexplain:
1. You can make one torrent of the directory, with multiple files within. You only seed as one torrent, but many bittorrent clients allow leechers to choose only the files they want within the directory. It is absolutely no different to you whether the torrent is zipped or not.
2. When people unarchive the torrent they are likely to delete the original download and hence stop seeding, meaning you as the original seeder have to carry the weight of all the seeding, and the torrent wont last long.

i guess if the torrent's gone now, people that haven't finished dling can't unpack and resume downloading the data. if they have finished it's best when elusive keeps the names and files as much the same as possible and people should be able to figure out how to seed from their download
