Ever used getright? When you are downloading large files it really is quite nifty.

For example you can split the file into 10 simultaneous downloads and have each one download from a different server (found in the integrated server search) in order to maximize your bandwidth. I can usually download using close to 100% of my bandwidth when I do this (650-750k/sec vs 300 or so)

Not to mention nice pausing/resuming features
