Placing the supporting files (jpg, nfo, txt, samples) into the RARs defeats
the purpose of allowing the down loader to view these before deciding
whether to download the RARs or not.
I have no problem with the supporting files being included in the PAR set
but personally I prefer not to do so.
You can't please everyone.
Thank you for the effort you have been doing on this project. I once
wondered how you knew the size etc. for your list of posted DVDs because I
did not figure that you had downloaded everything that was posted. I now
realize that I was mistaken.
