well, i totally see no point in spanning files onto multiple rars, but a normal .iso file would have been more suitable, and could hav been used even more easily with a program like deamon tools.... the problem seems that winace didnt support spanning .rar files....

It is just an iso. packed into 50 split rars. Winrar can do it btw.

So why do they use multipart rars with the bittorrent protocol when that supports resuming by default anyway? They're all bastards and they hate us.

I think that's because they made the package for other networks besides Torrents too, so it can be in one folder and on multiple networks like IRC, Torrent, Shareaza, Fasttrack, etc.etc

actually it usually starts out as one rar on irc, then gets split up to 50 and torrented. :<
