There are people who are always unhappy. I had no idea what lzma is

compile (I did not realize that tug distributes binaries)

Then I set LAN distribution of raw disks (on LAN even 1 GB is not
worth fuss usually)

Copywrite Holders Collective is coming after you; they would not
believe that anyone runs bittorrent (or buys blank CDs) to distribute
anything but illegal music. :-)
