![]() The season premiere episode of Battlestar Galactica had over 3000 people seeding it, and I managed to connect to 2 of them, which resulted in an embarrassing 6kbps transfer. Downloading a 1GB+ TV show episode would take a couple days, at best. I’ve found grabbing music via BitTorrent is acceptable, but still takes longer than it should. Unfortunately, my ISP (Rogers) throttles BitTorrent traffic something awful, which renders it almost entirely useless. But after mentioning my desire for the ability to add codecs to my Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3, I started wondering if there might be a better/easier means of watching the shows I download.īitTorrent seems like the obvious choice, given that there’s no additional cost. ![]() While it involves the most effort on my part, the end result is exactly what I’m after. Personally, I’ve tried all of the above and settled on the latter – Usenet. Now we have PVRs, on demand channels, digital distribution services, and more manual avenues like downloading via BitTorrent or Usenet. For the most part, we’ve had a way of recording shows and watching them later. When it comes to watching television shows, a lot has changed over the years.
