On the older versions LW had the option finish downloads then exit.
It did not work very well.
Sometimes I need to shutdown LW I do not like to simply click the close button a cease peoples uploads so I have to sit there cancelling all new uploads till the last one finishes.
It needs the feature Finish Uploads & Exit desperately.

Yes that would be nice if it works properly. It is nice that you wait for the uploads to finish, but unless you are sharing rare files you can shut down without much affect to other users d/loads.

More than likely they are d/loading from more than one host and will pick up another host after you shut down. How often are you d/loading from just one host?

I shutdown without any thought about other users.......Selfish?.....Maybe, but I think it's being practical.

Thanks for the reply strangely I do have a lot of unusual tracks.
Some French which seem to be very popular in Canada. And a lot of Jazz thanks to a Friends American Wife.
