aria2 is a multi-protocol & multi-source, cross platform download utility. The supported protocols are HTTP(S), FTP, BitTorrent, Metalink. It can download a file from multiple sources/protocols and tries to utilize your maximum download bandwidth.
Best downloader! Many download protocols, plenty of features. The coolest thing is this is command line application with rpc control. If X or GUI crashes it keeps downloading.
i already use this aria2 for a year, and try lots of other program too, but this one is the best and powerful of all of them ! I really owe the maker of aria2c a lot for changing my way of downloading files, from http,https,ftp, and torrent ! the only weakness it got is aria2 is too powerful that no GUI can keep up with it !
Used shell scripting and wget until I found this. Hard to beat downloading a Linux ISO from multiple mirrors at the same time.
Its the best download manager I know.
best downloader!
Best download manager for Linux!
Wish they had the latest version for Windows up for download. I'm stuck at 1.6.0. I don't know how to build it myself. :(
the best download manager ever. Too powerfull that no GUI can keep up with it !
