#32I don't understand these services. If I'm going to have to download the thing anyway, why put another layer in the middle? It's always going to take less time to download directly.

You let the service download the slow torrent over night and then use a fast download from their servers to transfer it to your computer. This way you don't have to have a running computer in your room all that time.

Hmm, I forgot that not all people have a computer running 24/7. I haven't seen many slow torrents, but I guess they exist. Thanks for the explanation!

And more and more these days you are using a mobile device where torrents aren't an option.

#36Careful with the .io domain, though I've never heard of them shutting down a startup over content, their rules do state: No .IO domain may be used, directly or indirectly, for any purpose that is sexual or pornographic or that is against the statutory laws of any Nation. The "laws of any Nation" could be a rather onerous clause one hopes never gets called upon. It has happened for .ly domains...
Startups needs to think twice when they decide to use a .io domain.
.io domains aren't top level domains like .com, .org, or .net. They're ccTLDs - country specific domains - like .co.uk, .us, or .com.au. Io is the local domain for the Indian Ocean states. Unlike the TLDs, and a handful of the early ccTLDs, Google doesn't treat .io as a global domain - it treats them as domains specific to the Indian Ocean. This means you're immediately at a disadvantage at being found by your target market via a google search (unless they're specifically searching for your brand).
So while you're more likely to get a common-word .io domain, and they have the obvious relation with technology, if your start up is going to be relying on search engine traffic or might be dealing in a slightly grey area, you should probably just save yourself the bother and go for getX.com or Xapp.com, where X is your website name.

Try TransDroid if you have a pc with a torrent client on, it's amazing.

This annoyed me, too.

#40So I can use the most blocked and filtered protocol on the planet to do regular stuff? Great. That will work out. As long as I never try it from my office where it's banned. Or from my house where it's purposely slowed down.
