"For fast Internet connections, it also speeds up the process by allowing chunks/segments of each file to be downloaded from multiple resources at the same time (segmented downloading)".
Parallel segmented downloads are anti-social (if you have to speed up the download, it means there is a bottleneck somewhere, either on network or on server, and by increasing the number of connections you simply steal bandwidth/ressources from others people) and a waste of server ressources. I just do not care about metalinks by itself but you do promote that kind of abusive use.
