I am able to seed at 1024 kb/s for up to 16 people. Please help me seed!

I have moved this to a tracker less vulnerable to .torrent tracker 'witch hunts' - please get the torrent from the following URL, instead. I will no longer be seeding this one.
Fellow seeds (and current downloaders) - keep the existing data and use the new torrent - hashes are the same, only the announce URL is different. You should be able to pick up where you left off.

I apologize for the trouble. Blame the RIAA/MPAA's of the world.

downloading.... great upload... thanks

Thanks for the upload. I greatly appreciate your effort.
It must be noted though that while some might need it in DVDR format that is a HUGE waste of bandwidth. The video files are only about 150MB a piece and there are only 6 of them so that's 900MB. I opted to download them as separate files and save 5.43GB of transfer.
Thank you again for your efforts I just feel people should know they can get them in a much smaller format from the source.
Go to BlenderUnderground dot com for the files.

Hi, kludge420.
Anyone worrying about why this is so (freaking) huge, I agree: I originally uploaded the original video files:

which *are* the original files, and come in under 800MB.
I can only assume this DVD-DL torrent is an MPEG2 transcode (ew!) of these. For the love of mumble, why?!
Please ... download the original files!

(ps. I have nothing to gain from this either way -- it's just the unmitigated waste annoys me).

slopbox,
because DVDs are MPEG-2, that's why. If you use some other codec (and I agree, MPEG-2 is eew) then it's not a standards compliant DVD-Video disk.
This torrent is for the DVD. If you have a problem with the size, burn to disk and delete... or go download the actual videos. I mirror and host a torrent for those as well.
