Post subject: | Magnet Links...? |
Hello to everyone, and a big THANK YOU to The Shadow for all the entertainment I have had from using your 'BitTornado' program throughout the years. Keep up the good work. If you were ever over my way I would buy you a pint. I am just curious to know has there been any thoughts on the new 'Magnet Links' which seem to be the way things are going at this time. Here is a link explaining what I am talking about for those of you scratching your heads: news.softpedia.com/news/BitTorrent-Magnet-Links-Explained-132536. And for a more technical read: wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet_URI_scheme. It would be good to get an idea on what the main man himself thinks and also a general idea on others thoughts about it. Bye the way... I have had a quick rummage around the forum and it looks like it could do with a bit of a spring clean in some areas (due to some foul mouthed pigs being let in at the door). There should be nothing but respect for one another round these parts. |

If I ever get the free time to start coding again, magnet links will be one of the new things added. It's a bit more complex than you may think; the metadata has to be fetched from other peers instead of being embedded in the torrent file, which means also implementing a protocol extension that performs this... As for the condition of the forum, I have a "thing" against censorship. I'd prefer not to delete messages, unless they're worthless spam. |

Thanks for the reply. Understood. Here's to you finding the time in the future so. If you find yourself loosing time (ie:money) with the next coding job,stick up a 'Paypal' link so as I/we can help you out a bit for a job well done. As I have a "thing" with advertising banners and hate to click or see them. Talk again soon my friend. |
