The ADSL connection at my server allows for about 56 kB/s of upload speed [1]. Some of it must be reserved for the web server, so let's say 30 kB/s can be allocated for the AVI file transfers.
And here is a practical example of bad advertising for the site (look at paragraph "8. TASVideos "): https://www.fossguru.com/best-torrent-sites-that-are-legal/

Wow, that's bad. What search process did you use to find that article? It's got a number of errors, and not just about our site.
Let's play a word association game, say the first word that comes to your mind when I say: "torrent". Now that you have that word, think if it is something you want this site to be associated with. I sure don't.
though I can't help but find this statement a little ironic on a site where all the content is highly dependent on emulators and ROMs, even if the former is legal in and of itself and the latter can't be found on the site. But it can't be denied that it's still piracy-adjacent.
I still use torrents and find them valuable. I have a mid internet that can't stream ultra HD video - For the best video quality, I need to torrent.
I also strongly dislike the idea of depending almost entirely on YouTube.
Lurker here. I still use torrents and find them valuable. I have a mid internet that can't stream ultra HD video - For the best video quality, I need to torrent. Torrents are not piracy, and I don't know why you should value the opinions of people who make that conflation. It would be like pandering to the TAS = Cheated Video crowd. There's no compelling reason to base your decisions on misinformation. As somebody else pointed out, especially because this site depends on ROMs, which are also incorrectly conflated with illegal activities. I don't think TASvideos will shake stigma around piracy so long as they make movies using ROMs and emulators (which will be Forever). I understand TASvideos isn't here to change the world or anything lol, but I think there's power in asserting that torrents are legal and a normal thing to partake in. It's just a good thing to do. I also strongly dislike the idea of depending almost entirely on YouTube. The browser feature of resuming problem downloads is hugely unreliable in my experience. It works sometimes but its an inconsistent strat. Torrents can be reliably resumed later. However, I don't have an answer to the data storage problem. If seeding a huge amount of data is too taxing, and you need to cut torrents for that reason, I understand.
We just don't link to Archive items, only directly to files. So maybe this part can be improved.
[16:36:31] <Mothrayas> I have to say this argument about robot drug usage is a lot more fun than whatever else we have been doing in the past two+ hours
[16:08:10] <BenLubar> a TAS is just the limit of a segmented speedrun as the segment length approaches zero
but I don't even know of a single site other than TASVideos that uses them in a legal way.

...site using torrents legally...
How the heck did they get literally every fact about us wrong?
