- You integrate any torrent library to osu (libtorrent, for example)
- Every time people uploading beatmaps there is torrent file included
- They can download beatmap by torrent (from osu or site) or by grabbing *.osz file from site
- Everyone seeding beatmaps while osu is running
- Updates will be performed faster
- No waiting for download beatmaps after downloading first two
- Less traffic for peppy's server too

An ease to our download situation in china

It already is to an extent, but needs some prereqs before it can be made live. Keep a look out in the future :p.
I've always dreamt of this for osu!, I'm glad peppy agrees.
Yes but I see a little problem for some people:
If you are using a connexion with limited up/down bandwith for exemple 3G connexion with 3GByte fair use this would use your bandwith... This may append to me when I use my phone as modem for exemple. If this come alive I think an option to disable is needed for this kind of connexions.

Be patient, it'll happen somedays
Some people have ridiculously slow upload and taking even a little bit of it can cause disconnections. This feature might be good in the long run, but it should definitely have a toggle to get turned off because of those issues.
yeah, this would need to have an opt in/out option.
I'd gladly offer some of my bandwidth, but I know many people who definitely couldn't afford to.

1. I dont want to sacrifice my bandwidth for that. Atm with osu direct it takes me like 4seconds to download a song. That is good enough.
2. What I will never do in my life is seed music files. Every year the gubberments around the world choose thousands of random people that seed music and fine them for each song. I do not want a two million euro fine just because osu! game. I would rather quit the game, than take the risk that when i log in that option is automaticly turned on and I am seeding before i get to turn it off. And i am sure many other people would aswell.
You could as well disable this functionality, I'm pretty sure this wouldn't be a must to seed, otherwise it would be kinda stupid.

I agree that a user should be able to opt out. There should also be a scheme to encourage seeding, eg higher bandwidth/quota allowance for seeders of a certain ratio (or even 1 month free supporter at milestones lol).Marcin wrote:

seed only when download and +1~5 mins
so if downloading a song for 1 mins, you seed it for 2~6 mins,
if downloading a song for 53 mins, you seed it for 54~58 mins, seems legit

for those who would appreciate the torrent-feature out of the game, there is a solution done by hiramia and me: t/147478
Remember: More people to join this, higher bandwith you'll get!

I can see here a little door to spread unsubmitted maps and (perhaps) Skrillex ranked ones, because some people hold some of them.
