Set minimum download speed
Brought to you by:

I am new to AudioGalaxy but it appears that you cannot do
concurrent downloads. If this is true, it would be nice if you could
specify a minimum download speed such that if the download
slows down below this limit, that download is cancelled and the
client moves on to the next file on the list. Otherwise a long list of
files can take forever if there is just one slow file on the list.

Regarding concurrent downloads, let me quote the readme:
MOST IMPORTANT TO YOUR QUESTION IS THE PLEASE NOTE AT
THE BOTTOM
1. FOR NEW AUDIOGALAXY USERS
For those of you not familiar with Audiogalaxy, it is a WEB BASED
service.
This client does nothing more than handle the actual transferring of files.
All searching etc. is done at their web page. www.audiogalaxy.com.
When you launch OpenAG X for the first time, it will open the
Preferences Window for you. You can click on the audiogalaxy.com link
in the window to be taken directly to the sign-up page on their website.
From there, you get an account. After getting a username/password
pair, you enter those in OpenAG X and hit Login. Once your login is
processed and your shares sent, it will begin downloading whatever files
you have queued at their website.
To queue files on Audiogalaxy.com for download, you can simply go to
their page and type in your search terms and hit "go." It will bring up a
list of songs, all with either little satellite icons, or little X's next to them.
Those with satellite icons can be clicked on to begin searching and
download. The icons will turn green (if you're logged in to OpenAG), or
red (if you're not connected with OpenAG). It may take some time for
the server to find the file and tell your client (OpenAG) once it does, the
download should happen relatively quickly.
PLEASE NOTE: Audiogalaxy requires that you share at least 25 files
before you are allowed more than 1 simultaneous download (THIS IS A
SERVER SIDE LIMIT).

Regarding your idea of a minimum download speed. That is a wonderful
idea, which should be implemented in teh libary, and is on the list.
Thank you.
