Torrent of all diggnation episodes

[mikwit]

Any interested in a torrent of all the shows ever. I think it'd be a neat idea, I'd download it and seed for ever. No seedbox but it wouldn't be too hard if we have a swarm with people downloading some episodes from the website. what do you think?

I would absolutely love this.

Unlikely given the whole MediaDefender fiasco.

Well if they won't do it I'm sure one of us will
I'd love to download all of them once it's done with, keep em on a NAS.

If I remember correctly the problem was they were running their own tracker, which got attacked by MediaDefender. They could put the torrent on a public tracker and just seed it to solve that problem.

Using bittorrent instead of having everyone download every episode from the rev3 servers would be a win-win. Less of a hassle and much faster downloads for us and less bandwidth wasted for them.

I know from personal experience that downloading from revision3 directly is best. They get the numbers for the sponsors that way. I do wonder how much roughly 150 Gigabytes of bandwidth costs them though...

Probably way less than they get for one episode of the whole "let's thank 78 different sponsors that are the same as last week!"

Seriously though, if I actually have a cap on bandwidth, I just blew through 170gb of it downloading diggnation :P

or could just D/L them here so they get the revenue to put pn future live/anniverary shows

Idea! Have a donation pool once it ends and every time they hit $10,000 or some amount, they do a show.

I would be very interested in someone doing that. You have my vote.
