Yes I did, my share ratio is somewhere between 2 and 3. So far I have
downloaded the XFCE LiveCD, but I was planning to download the DVD even
though I don't need it. Do you know why? Just so that I can seed. Yes
people do share. I don't know if you have read all the messages in this
thread, but there was a poster who shared his DVD download for F12 to a
share ratio of 400 over the last 6 months!
Bittorrent rulez.
I also agree with you. I generally keep my bittorrent client running
most of the time. I love that I can share and I love it that I can
control upload/download speeds to have minimal effect on, for example,
watching baseball games.
