No BS on the Beta Keys. I am a Microsoft Connect member and received an email with an invitation ID# to get the Windows 7 Beta download. anyone else who is a member should get the same email. I would post a link but you need to login to M$ Connect to view the message. Here is a link to M$ Connect: https://connect.microsoft.com/default.aspx

From your link : "In 2006, Microsoft also reportedly considered, then rejected, distributing Vista Beta 2 using the BitTorrent file-sharing protocol."

Maybe they should reconsider ! LOL

they still works fine and fast for me

Well, it'll stop eventually. Before I tried with FDM, It stalled at 27% and the download cancelled on itself (with Firefox).

I'll try a couple of things with FDM then if it's not working, I'll try with IeShit.

Nope. No matter what, I'm unable to finish the download. I guess I'm gonna go for bittorrent after all

Maybe Bill will donate some more servers and help MS out on this one ?

Did you go through the TechNet download that was active a few hours ago?

I don't download the 64-bit because I don't need it. I just have 2GB of RAM. But for the 32-bits, it starts really fast then go all the way down and then... I lose the download.

I am seeing messages on other forums that you can keep refreshing

To eventually get a 64-bit edition key.

However when I do it I am being returned to the Windows 7 Information Page. Not sure if it works if you're patient though.
