For fuck's sake, this is an antiquated technique used for 28.8 and 56k dial up connections for warez sites. Because downloading a 200mb file was pure hell, but twenty 10mb files were okay because if you got a phone call that your grandpa was dying, you could just resume the download from the last file after the funeral (or FUNneral, amirite? He was a racist fuck)
But, here we are in 2014. And I'm tryin'ta download some fuckin' pirated TV show and lo and behold, the torrent is just a bunch of stupid .r01 files and shit. It have to take, like, 45 seconds for 7z to cobble together the video file before I can watch it on my HDTV.
Gah.
Why?
Then, of course, I've got to fuckin' delete the stupid files that I extracted from. Double the diskspace, quadruple my effort/work. Fuckin' bullshit. Just give me the fuckin' video file, asshole pirate dude.
So, how's your day going?
