Wow - currently downloading a FEC movie at 33k/sec (estimated).

A few more ideas:

We should look at/collect statistics on the success of retries and 
such-like, this will improve our understanding of what HTLs are good, 
and what retry strategies work.

What about some kind of "download manager" - users may not want to 
dedicate an entire browser window to the download.  Downloads could be 
queued, or retrieved concurrently.

And finally, a simple practical suggestion - the page title should 
indicate download % and ETA so that the user can monitor progress when 
the window is minimized.

Ian.
