Torrentz!!

The new (Ha) Xubuntu machine DL'd its first show last night. A Medeski, Martin and Wood show off of bt.etree.org. Just to see if it worked, it did, just the first show I say that interested me.

Worked nice, "Transmission" came with Xubuntu. I've heard of this app before but never used it. Didn't have to set anything up, just opened to torrent file, and Bam!, DL started right up, was grabbing the files at 300 Kbs in a couple of minutes. 600MB show took <1 hour to DL.

This is gonna be nice.
