Does quantity affect download speed of Utorrent?

When downloading multiple movies using Utorrent (or any torrent client), does the amount of movies you are downloading simultaneously affect (slow down) the download speed of all of them?

    Well . Actually its not the Quantity of the movie the speed Depends . It is Mainly the Number of seeds for that Torrent File on Which the download speed Depends on. The two Major Factors are :

    1.Number of Seeds

    2.Number of Peers (Rarely)

    So in order to download a movie in a faster manner . Always try downloading the torrent File with maximum seeds in it ...

    Hope this helped you ...

    HAVE FUN !!

    yes seeders are the key to fast downloads almost 100%. get into a good private tracker and all torrents are seeded great and all downloads will be ultra fast.

    yes actually when u download something or uploading u are given a specific bandwidth if u run many downloads the bandwidth available for each download gets narrow and so the speed reduces.....

    i am guessing here that two or three at the same time should not make much difference. The processor and the internet is doing very little so should handle it. If you unsure use Bittorrent at the same time.

    it could have an extraordinarily small effect. To be honest, the entire concept of the torrent device is which you upload and acquire concurrently (giving back what you obtain) so i might set them the two to limitless.

    as you are getting pieces of movies, the software is also sharing (uploading) those pieces to other computers

    so you are in danger of a lawsuit

    and if stupid enough to use a computer at work

    or bring a work laptop home with you

    you are in danger of getting the company into a lawsuit

    if that happens, it will be your last day at work.
