Maybe smaller packs arranged alphabetically? (ie. A-I, J-R, S-Z) It would decrease the amount of torrents needed, yet people wouldn't have to download the entire megapack for the shipset(s) they want.

It seems to me downloading the whole thing just to get two or three shipsets I like would be a real PITA. I have no facts or experience on this though. I have never run into a situation where I had to download a whole bunch of stuff to just get one item.

But, those of us who only have dial up, for whatever reason, would be SOL.

It just takes some know how with your torrent client.
