The problem is that the 5 slots are probably taken before anyone with a bittorrent clue can get the file.

I don't know why anyone would advocate bittorrent over a direct FTP download.

Couple of reasons:
- files can be downloaded faster (minutes instead of 2 hours)
- downloaders are not limited to 5 or 10 simultanous downloads. download begins immediately instead of being blocked by ftp slots being full.
- the file will stay available longer than just what the initial uploader is able to keep the ftp up (depends on how long people are willing to seed it, naturally)

bittorrent economy

Well, there was Lapsuus (Future Crew = Future Mark = MadOnion 3dMark = Maturefurk)

Most of the FC guys left Remedy even before Max Payne. They do have a company called Bugbear Entertainment, but that's not related to futuremark, 3dmark or maturefurk (Bugbear relased FlatOut 2 recently).

No FC guys were involved in Lapsuus demo.

(This info is from Mikko, so it should be pretty accurate.)
