On the completely frustrating 99.9% donwload-that-won't-complete, it is I believe the price you have to pay for the programming decision to allow uploads from partially downloaded files. If the original of a large file goes off line before anyone has a complete copy of it, several thousand people may then be downloading from several thousand incomplete - and never to be completed - copies of the file.
