...via BitTorrent.

You'll need a BitTorrent client, and this is the one I'm using right now:

After you've installed BitTorrent, go here:

Once more people are on the torrent, things should speed up (am I correct?).

Bit Torrent normally is quite slow for me, but there must have been a lot of seeds for this file when I downloaded it, because I got 200k/s.

Now, question; what CodeC is it using? Windows Media Player and Quicktime wont play it.
