kaareem9:
The downloader works very well, with the multi-track capability it was much faster than the hdtracks java downloader. Also I had one track hang during the download, but once I closed and reopened the downloader it restarted it and finished without a hitch....more informaion

Hi-

A few comments about the downloader:

1. It's good. Much better than the present official HDTracks downloader.
2. A few comments suggestions:

a. A "pause" button would be nice
b. The present HDT downloader numbers the tracks in the file name: 01- track.flac; 02- track.flac and so on. I think this feature would be useful to many users.
c. Failed or interrupted downloads: there needs to be a good system so that when the downloader starts again after being interrupted, it starts where it left off, and doesn't start tracks that weren't completed from the beginning.

Thanks

Thanks for the feedback.  Downloads should resume automatically now if you restart the downloader.

Agree. Please add this feature.

The downloader does work well though.
