BitTorrent is a safe sharing protocol. After your download completes, please keep your client open for a while to allow others to share your bandwidth. The more people that do this, the faster it will be for everyone.

For advanced users, you can use the Azureus client to handle multiple simultaneous torrents in a single interface. See http://azureus.sourceforge.net/

I have the Final Matches posted in both WMV and MPG format currently. Working my way down through the SemiFinals and then the QuarterFinals.

1:45am update: All SF and QF matches that I have are posted. NASA TV messed up QF1M1 and I've got three SF2 matches. FIRST's website doesn't list the score for SF2M1 as it was a tie!

Hey dude--I have a better idea.

Why not upload them to Google Video?

It's free. You can download videos from it or include the player in your website...for free.

It's compatible with anyone and everyone.

It doesn't depend on seeder bandwidth, just Google bandwidth.

I'd like to see everyone with video of comps upload it to google under the production company "FIRST ROBOTICS 2006."

That--and the specific information provided below it--will make it easily searchable.

Whaddya say? Upload them for us?
