I don't like bi-torrent. Tried it and it sucked.

You've just been looking for a place to use "suck."
FWIW, bittorrent is a good medium for distributing large files to a lot of people so that a central download site doesn't get pummelled. It rarely is a way to download something fast. And it usually doesn't work well enough until there are like 10+ people actively downloading something something. Most torrent download sites will indicate number of seeders and leachers. If the number of seeders is low 1-3 and the number of leachers isn't more than 6-10, then the download is probably going to take a long time.
But if there's nowhere else to get your fix other than a bittorrent download, what are you going to do?
