Seedbox

We should get a communal seedbox so that people who are under downloading constraints, such as those at school, can get in on the hot torrenting action! I've been reading up on the process, but I was wondering, how much would people be willing to spend on a monthly basis for a torrent proxy?

I think Ben's father is already spending a buttload on some bandwidth >.>

I wonder if it's a symmetrical line, though. If it is, setting up a server would be a fun project. Still, I mean, Ben's dad IS paying for a pretty fat pipe, so I'm sure he'd like to use it at least a little. Of course, we can do application-based throttling to facilitate that. Yes, this seems quite reasonable, now that I think of it. Like, we can cobble together a small form factor PC from spare components and stuff we have lying around, jazz it up with a couple hard drives. Then Ken and Ara and Ben and all the other people relying on lame universities for their internet can torrent out the wazzoooooooooo.

And I'm sure that no one would be against giving us a little priority of downloading, since you know, we set it up =D
