Unofficial AmigaOS 3.5 Promotion Tape
« on: January 13, 2005, 04:39:37 PM »

My friend finally got around to give me the .avi version of my tape that I gave to him some months back, so now anyone who wants to sneak a peek, can do so.. :-)

But I don´t really know how to make it avaliable for download.. The only thing I can think of is Bittorrent, but perhaps someone else has another idea?

I would prefer FTP, but my broadband connection is seriously crippled, since it for some strange reason goes thru a router in our basement, and the admin doesn´t seem to want to open up all the ports directly to my computer... Sucks! :-(

I´ll create a torrent and post the link a little later..

Do I need to connect to a specific server? Otherwise it´s shared now... The file is called "Unofficial AmigaOS 3.5 Promotion Tape.avi".

I provided a link to the .torrent a few posts back..

I don´t really know how Emule works, so I might have missed something..

Yep, there are some people getting it... Not too fast though... :-(

But I´ve managed to share more than 100MB now... :-)

Well, in a strict, legal, pool-cue-up-my-ass kind of way it technically is "illegal", but I thought since the company that made it doesn´t exist anymore, and the tape is ( or at least was ) being sold for the cost of the media, no-one would really care about it...

Right? :-)

Mmm... The tracker seems to have one of it´s bad days... Perhaps it´s overloaded, or something... :-(

Oh, so you downloaded the whole thing? I liked the comparisons between Windows and AmigaOS... :-)

I guess torrents really depend on a system of verifying that people "seed" alot, and not uploading everything people can think of ( as on the "professional" torrent sites ) and not as on the tracker on which I uploaded my torrent, on which there is no content-control, nor obligement to seed.. Which perhaps overloads the tracker, resulting in poor connections to other users...

Those are my thoughts, anyway... :-)
