If someone wants just WDL (due to bandwidth or storage restrictions), his only option currently is to click on complete torrent, and then manually uncheck DTZ files one by one. Not a really satisfactory solution for this very likely scenario.jshriver wrote:Actually I hadn't thought of that.

Certainly hope so.
Can understand the reasoning for this, but at the same time, the more people we have going into it the faster it'll be for everyone. So fragmenting it would reduce speed.
Same for 3-4-5 and 6-piece sets. Duplicating 3-4-5 both as separate torrent and as part of 3-4-5-6 collection results in waste of bandwidth. Say, person A downloads 3-4-5 set, person B downloads the whole 3-4-5-6 set from second torrent. When person C tries to download 3-4-5 set, he only downloads from A, although person B keeps seeding the whole 3-4-5-6 set. Waste of bandwidth.
On the other hand, offering only 3-4-5-6 collection (not 3-4-5 one), while removes the duplication, creates difficulties for those who only need 3-4-5 files. So the way I see it the solution may be to offer 3-4-5-piece set and 6-piece set, but not 3-4-5-6 together. (Adding WDL / DTZ split this means 4 torrents).
