Downloading Question

[SicEmBaylor]

When downloading a torrent or using a P2P program or whatever else, has anyone noticed that when a file only has like .05% or less left the thing slows WAY WAY down. It reminds me of pre-paying at the pump when they slow down the gas flow so that the last dollar takes a freaking eternity to pump.

Why does this happen?

[OUWxGuesser]

because the RIAA and MPAA run all of their tests to catch you once the file is basically complete...
