This is why such things should be in archives but individual files, as least people can get a significant portion of the files from the torrent.

- rozab 5y agoMy torrent client (deluge) gives the option to check which files in the torrent I want to download when I add it. So bittorrent already has this facility, and it's probably how this situation arose in the first place.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoI was talking about zipping all the files into one big zip/xz/whatever, torrents don't allow those to be broken up into "little files". All bittorrent clients I've used have the ability to select which files (-not- in an archive) you want to download, but default to "all"
