I2P support anonymous torrents

TOR is good for direct downloads (DDL)

Don’t know if others exist…

IIRC TOR is OK with a stream from one source (DDLs fit the bill), but isn’t made for handling many streams at once. I2P is good for that --> torrenting over I2P doesn’t stress the network as much.

I2P needs more nodes though. It’s much slower than TOR

Thank you for the correction, it is true that a DDL is a single connection usually, where as torrenting is many connections and that is what’s bad for Tor.
