im personaly quit conviced emule would not work. a small list of problems i could think of. emule network uses "servers", and for this to work GCW would have to have its own. Witch will creata the following problems.
  • You need a server for this offcourse
  • emule can only be connected to 1 server at the time, So ppl would have to change server to download. And then they would proberbly quit your server at once. Since you would have to make sure it "host" any warez
  • Most ppl that use emule, download & share illegal files. The secound they joined your server you would be helping spreading warez.
  • emule servers normaly have a limit on how many files a person can share. (from about 600-1000 in my xp). This might be less than the total # of files GCW has at one time. So your gonna need more then one "server" hosting the files on emule

As Yummy Sprinkles pointed out a queue method might work, or better yet. you can allow ppl to choose between queue or BT.

Offcourse its posible to have ed2 links on the webpage, and see if a 3d party is willing to help gcw host files on the biggest servers.
