I2P support anonymous torrents

TOR is good for direct downloads (DDL)

Don’t know if others exist…

    I don’t like DDL over Tor as it is not really designed for heavy bandwidth. I2P could be the future once more users start using it, right now BiglyBT can crossover on the clearnet and I2P.

      IIRC TOR is OK with a stream from one source (DDLs fit the bill), but isn’t made for handling many streams at once. I2P is good for that --> torrenting over I2P doesn’t stress the network as much.

      I2P needs more nodes though. It’s much slower than TOR

        Thank you for the correction, it is true that a DDL is a single connection usually, where as torrenting is many connections and that is what’s bad for Tor.
