I stated that if the same download has an existing bittorrent file then
it can be done.
eg. Near the end of this month most people will be downloading Ubuntu
8.04 and Fedora 9. So, after starting the download they realise the
servers are heavily loaded thus giving them below optimal download
speeds. Thus, they can switch over to torrents for the rest of the
downloads. Bittorrent can check the file for the downloaded parts thus
avoiding re-downloading them. So, in effect you will be continuing your
downloads at much better speeds(subject to properly configured
bittorrent client).
