The new version is much faster and more stable.

It handles torrents better too it’s just a shame feedmytorrents posts rar files, because it adds a level of indirection.

K_K – it’s designed to download video from streaming sites and also torrents first before allowing you to view them. So no, you cant view the video as it’s downloading.

Is this live viewing of video as u download or just a bittorrent client clipped to a video player?

If only it didn’t use firefox’s source as the backend. Damn thing is so slow and resource intensive. Especially when you have Firefox running in conjunction with it.

Miro represents what information and cultural exchange via the internet should be. Been using it for years in Linux. There are still a few bugs in the new version but no show-stoppers.
Something for everyone. Great, great public service.

mininova does offer a direct link to the torrent you just have to add “&direct” at the end of the rss url. works prefectly.

Why bother downloading “the daily show” anymore?
You can watch whole episodes online.

And you do not even get the annoying “Only for US residents” message.

Everyone can watch it.
