File Sharing vs IRC

Is it time to shift to Internet Relay Chat (IRC)? The advantage of using the IRC instead of file sharing software is that you don't share the software as with BitTorrentand other file sharing programs. Instead you send requests to have software sent to you. However you are limited to the connection speed of that one source on the IRC versus potentially multiple connections from BitTorrent.

XDCC Klipper

A plugin for mIRC for tracking your XDCC's (file transfers) on the IRC.
