yeah.. I'm still seeding you - but it's really slow - for some reason I don't get bilateral connections on this torrent... so it only gets up to about 90k/sec (and most of the time it's been at like 20k/sec)

My download is finally cranking at 90KBps... 65% completed. :sweat:

It's sad that 90k/s could be considered cranking :crazy:

Hai, if I could get that on BT i'd be happy. I'm spoilt here at work, i've had direct downloads over 1.2Mb/s :sweat:

Wish I was spoiled at work: out DSL line is slower than my home DSL. :shakehead:

(Apparently our office is too far a way from a DSL substation for a faster connection... :sweat: )

It's her hairdo that makes her face look chubbier... :)

Compare the pics that you quoted and the hairstyles... :D

Download completed! :sweat:


Passing out now....

Now that the download is completed, I'm going to run DVD Shrink on it so it'll all fit on a standard single-layer DVD... :victory:

I'm sure you know already as you're the master of the DVD thread but you know you can split up that DVD9 into two DVD5's right? I hate losing quality so I'd rather just use an extra disc :victory:

I'm not that anal about picture quality to bother with spanning the DVD over two discs... I've used DVDShrink on a number of DVD9s and haven't seen any noticeable degradation in video quality...

Besides, I could just buy some dual-layer discs and not worry about spanning at all. :)

You said it :mrgreen: I likely wouldn't be able to tell the difference in a shrinked version either. However just the idea of degradation is enough for me to split it :beaten:

Here's to dual-layer discs! :rolleyes2: If you've noticed over at asiandvdclub that many golden torrents seem to be dvd9 versions... now I've never looked into dual-layer prices but the act of keeping my ratio up is more expensive/creates more work :mrgreen:

Then it would put you in the category of being anal. :beaten:

Yeah, I've never tried any dual-layer discs either, since I've read mostly negative reviews... As far as keeping you ratio up, I just leave my downloading PC on all the time... :beaten:

Usually those DVD9 discs are full of (IMO) junk, useless interviews and trailers, dub streams, sometimes bloated menus (like Flashpoint's 1.5gb menu o_O) or unsubbed making offs/interviews. I strip those.

I always re-encode the dvd9's that I get with DVD-RBPRO+HC: the results are amazing.
and if you're into newsgroups, you will more than likely have downloaded my dvd's :victory:

I'm surpised it's DVD9. From my experience, most Japanese DVD's are single layered, though they charge box-set prices for them.

She really pulled off the solemn high schooler well. Too bad more of the movie wasn't centered around her. :grumble:
