Strange, I find iTunes the fastest way to download media + you can watch while downloading. For me that usually means spend 30-60 seconds downloading and then start watching and the download keeps up.
- errantspark 13y agoThese days you can watch torrents while downloading too.
- dsuth 13y agoNot here (Australia). iTunes can take anywhere up to 40 minutes to download enough of a high res movie to start watching. And can then randomly stop the movie as it fails to keep up enough bandwidth over the 1:30 or so run duration. Torrents are normally half an hour from start to finish.
