Bulk download?
Hi, is there a way to download a number of releases at the same time? Downloading every release individually can be a bit of a chore. I would like to be able to download for instance "all C64 demos from 2007" in one go. |

I have noticed that csdb already has a multiple download prevention check, 2 downloads don't start from the same ip, the 2nd download starts only when the 1st is almost finished. |

*download.php* is the key ;)
How exactly does this work? Everytime i try to do this i get a "you are creating a huge load" warning. I tried DTA and have set it to only do 1 file at a time. I eventually would like to download all the releases here, but without creating problems for the site. |

set a proper delay between requests, like a couple seconds or so |

Why not provide periodically a dump of whole release database? This may be later distributed as Torrents or uploaded to AWS servers for example.
Just my 2 cents... |

CSDb is already available as bulk, with weekly updates. I am not sure the collection is available publically yet, though. I like the idea to have the database mirrored and available for bulk download elsewhere. |
