Why doesn't the download start at 0 ?
I have seen it a few times now it starts wit 1MB skipping the first meg - so I cant preview the content till I find a second server or at least get another chance to connect , why ?

Also I think it would now soon be nice and necessary to start developing some kind of verify and repair mode in which instead of a download a system could ask some md5sums of segments to search and find problems and then if it found the difference request that specific segment ...

I think this will be necessary because we just increased the number of chances to get faulty files now its time to talk about adding some solutions...

Cheers!
