    What does the 0.1% of the file contain anyway, if it’s a video and most of the data is there it might be either playable or if not it probably might be able to be repairable so it can play, albeit with minor corruption in the damaged part.

      Video files can be played with as little as 5% downloaded, so long as the header and footer are complete

          The header and footer? Possibly, if you knew the technical metadata of the file. Codec, bitrate, all that jazz

          It works well with shows you want to start watching immediately. Enable sequential download, 2 minues to grab the header/footer, and you can start watching. It’ll download faster than you watch.
