Wow, I never heard of this mirrorbrain thing...but it looks to be really slick. I like the fact that it can create its own torrents too.
A question - When I click on the "Details" link for any of the files, it gives me 2 mirrors for the USA based on my IP address. Those are fukawi2.nl and shadowbranch.com. Is there any reason that my mirror (cptl.org) does not show up? It is located in the USA too.
