I’m perplexed. Why is the release in dozens of files, cryptically hard to find, most of the threads devoid of links, hosted on a random site, requiring a questionable downloader, and maybe a password?

I have no idea what you’re talking about. Jdownloader is not ‘questionable’ if that’s what you’re talking about. If the multiple files you are talking about are rars (I’m not sure if it’s in that format yet?), that is a standard format for large downloads. If downloading by http, you do not want a 24gb file to crap out on you, and rars have the benefit of letting you know if something was corrupted.

Seems like many are frustrated, including me obviously. How about a single MKV download / torrent file for those who are not experts?

It seems like it’s mostly you. But your post will probably be the first of many, so I’m sure you’re right. If you’re not a member on the torrent site it’s on, where it’s a single MKV, then maybe you could try waiting even 24 hours or beyond for it to inevitably be posted to one of the sites you use.

We also do not post links here, because we are happy to not be shut down. These things are mildly tricky to distribute, because they are not what you would call perfectly legal. I’m sure we would all love to have a simple link to give you, or a youtube stream. It is not that straightforward for obvious reasons.

Sounds reasonable. I obviously am not a member of the torrent site you mention, not have I encountered a name of that site. The frustration mentioned is not expressed on this board, both the logistical challenges of acquiring the files and the concerns about jdownloader (valid or not). I’ll be patient and hopefully await a public torrent. The legal overtones are also understood. Thanks.

I’m very excited about this. I want to enjoy the result of all the hard work it must have required to produce this restoration.
