"Metalink Access"
by proghead

Description
Let's you download files offered via Metalink.

It supports single and multi-file downloads through HTTP, FTP (and
Bittorrent, kind of). For now, the Metalink file has to reside on the
same domain as the link pointing to it for security reasons.
To use it, you just click on a link that points to a Metalink file.
Each time it will try to download a file from a different mirror. If
it's a multi-file Metalink, a dialog will show up that lists all the
files. Also using a different mirror for each file, each time, if
possible.
That means it may be worthwhile to click a Metalink more than once, if
no file could be found on the first try.
Advanced features like hash verification are not supported. Mostly
since there's no way to access the download manager from extensions
(yet?). So I'd have to write my own for those features, and I'd like
to avoid that.
Changelog

New in 2.0:
Support for mirrors and multi-file Metalinks.

Changed:
Local servers not preferred anymore - randomly selected now. May come
back in a later version.
