unlike getright D4X and NT cannot , of it's own volution do anything intelligent with the collection of mirror sites. Getright for instance can periodically(you set it in preferences) check up on the download speeds of the set of mirror sites by "pinging" them, and then if it find sites with significantly better download speeds it can automatically switch to that site and continue the download from that url. D4X and Nt both rely on the user to do it manually if they so wish.
