I just set up an account for creating torrents for legal use at LegalTorrents. I created a DVD recently [1] with OLPC photos for a long-running (almost 1 hour) slideshow. At 1.6 GB, http downloads would be a pain. Torrenting is the way to go, but most torrent sites are loaded with pornographic ads - not something I appreciate. So, I went looking for creative commons style torrenting. Found legalTorrents. After a few e-mail exchanges, my account was set up. My OLPC Photo DVD is now torrenting away from their site. Its much faster than my wimpy home DSL upload. http://beta.legaltorrents.com/torrents/569-olpc-photo-dvd [2]

Download, burn, and loop away!!!
