Why http when you can torrent...
Because I don't want to limit the audience to the 1% or so who use bit torrent (according to some stats I just looked up). Also because I occasionally add files to the archive, and hosting it on a web server (plus updating the copy at archive.org) assures that everybody who downloads it gets the latest version. Mind you, distributing the collection as a torrent makes sense - if enough people "adopt" the thing to keep it seeded, that provides a distributed archival copy, hard to scrub out of the networks.

Yay! Speaking of torrents, here's a bit of fun: Punishment Park (Peter Watkins, 1971), a pseudo-documentary where a British film crew follows a U.S. political tribunal. The by-definition guilty suspects can choose their sentence: A long prison term, or a three day hike in Punishment Park. Watkins cast real radicals and real pigs in as many roles as possible, and it shows: A couple of them do "lose their shit" on camera. In a 'meta' sense the film really does present as a documentary. Five stars, etc. magnet:?xt=urn:btih:ddf539b77fe77902e9dbb2d9ec09209e888f2d69&dn=Punishment+Park+%28Peter+Watkins%2C+1971%29+Masters+of+Cinema&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.leechers-paradise.org%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fzer0day.ch%3A1337&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fexodus.desync.com%3A6969 :o)
