Has anyone else tried btaccel?

In short: It's a website which you can use for your torrent downloading.
 - You just provide the URL of the torrent you wish to download. The site will download the torrent for you. (The best thing about it is you won't expose your own connection directly to the torrent trackers or other downloaders/uploaders).
 - The site gives you an ETA. (usually it takes a bit of time. In my first attempt a 4GB torrent was estimated at 17 hours).
 - You can ask to be sent an email when the torrent is finished and available in your profile. You can then download it directly from that site just using your browser. No client needed.
 - I've tried a couple of torrents, and downloading them directly from the site I'm utilizing 100% of my connection. In other words, it's really fast to download once the site has finished the torrent Smiley

In my tiny experience with this thing, it saves you a lot of time and hassle. At least when it comes to public sites like legaltorrents.com.

Here's a review of it: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/totally-hassle-free-torrent-downloading-with-btaccel-free-invites/

I haven't tried it, but it seems like the next logical thing after the fall of TPB.

I am only downloading .iso's for hard to come by application or OS's that are no longer sold so i am not sure i have a use for it... yet Smiley
