Better download for slower speeds.
Did you know that torrents download slower than normal downloads?
That's because torrents simultaneously upload(seeding) the downloads while downloading.
That's ~20% slower than your normal speed.
I have been using a different method to download torrents(less than 1GB).
Using online torrent managers(zbigz.com, bytebx.com), you can download torrents to cloud.
Then you can download individual files or whole torrent as a zip archieve.
(Note:Use a download manager like DownThemAll for firefox to download with good speed
and also to resume paused downloads without downloading whole file again and again, if something goes wrong)
