What makes y'all torrent instead of DDL? I read in the megathread that DDL is less likely to get you caught, but a lot of people on here seem to really enjoy torrenting and I must be completely clueless as to why. I'd like to have your insights

Fast. I can fully use my 800 Mbps network while in DDL. It is usually capped at 40 or 60 Mbps. It has other downsides too like only being able to download one file at the same time or having a cooldown b/w download(which I am sure J2Downloader can fix that). I usually torrent or If I am in a hurry I just stream it from some good sites.
