thanks jugulear, I think I'll try that. Yeah I remember going to some chinese torrent sites and their files are huge as shit too. Like a movie would be 4GB+, but I think it was back then when a lot of them were rippled by enthusiasts so they just put the entire dvd on it without doing any encoding. Getting paid by the size of file is weird too. You'd think you want the size to be reasonable so more people would download it. Nowadays when I see something that's more than 3 or 4GB for a two hour video I just skip.
