1) You have a better chance of getting your file, and
2) The songs with the most sources are usually the songs of the best quality. Quote: | but it is downloading 4 copies of the song from 4 different hosts. Should I close all but the fastest download? | It's not download 4 copies. It's downloading 1 copy, but to speed things up, it's getting it from 4 different sources. When the download's done, it will splice all the pieces together and you'll have your file.
