Nice idea that would only of be use if you already had copies
distributed across multiple connections to the internet.

If you only have one point for your uplink, you're still stuck with
whatever is the bandwidth limit of the one feeder.


Using that method, you also run the risk of a random speculative
'sales invoice' from the RIAA/MPAA!...
