Quote:Low-band people like me have never been able to download large files, and it sounds like BT is for large files.  From what I've heard, it basically streams the file to your computer like a P2P system.  Is that about what it does?

BT is great for mass-sharing of large files, because everyone downloading the file is also utilising their upstream bandwidth to redistribute what they've already downloaded to others.

You can still use BT, even with low bandwith (I know this from personal experience). It will resume downloads right where you leave off. It just takes a lot longer :)
