Interesting. I tried some 'magnets' from here http://www.leeware.com/magnet.html (as discussed here ), and thought they didn't work because of some incompatibility. Would be nice if they did work.

Which reminds me--I meant to request that I could create magnets from a multiple file selection in the library.

In response to your earlier post about torrents, are there good reasons to not allow torrents to be used through LW? I recall the earliest posts in the mailing lists were about sharing bandwidth, much as you described with torrents. If this would take away dev time, I could see the argument against, but if they are easily 'ported' /integrated with the magnets--then they seem like a reasonable request.
