Great. if you do then let us know, I've been seeding the complete MAME romset for about a week now and will happily add your archive to the list. People are currently dragging about 12k/s out of my link downloading it from me. A line upgrade is happening in a few days. The best way to do it appears to be to share out the directory heirarchy rather than archive it all into one large zip file as this allows people to check out the contents of the download as it comes down and also to copy a partial dump from one person to another then for those two people to hit the torrent and continue from where the download left off. Also if they delete one file they just hit the torrent again and just that one file is downloaded. Sorry if you already know all this ;-) -- For every expert, there is an equal but opposite expert
