You've had enough of LW? Just for that? Boy...

Anyway, in that sense, BitTorrent prevails in that it's swarming system will fill out the blanks of any file.
LW uses a different swarming system from what I've been told.
Also, BitTorrent doesn't use any log file that will tell it what parts are missing: it just checks out how much of the file has been dlded whenever you open a new .torrent file (and that's why you can resume any file that you want -and even correct erroneous bytes- as long as you find the .torrent file and enough peers). Maybe tht's the way to go.

Finally, I read that LW beta supports .torrents (and so will 4.2). Maybe something like that will be incorporated there.
