No I dont escrow anymore.
I tried torrenting and it is going to take me more than 24 hours since there isn't many seeds around. Is there a direct link where I could do wget?

The fastest way is to run bitcoin core. Any other method of downloading either requires you to verify the download later or trust someone else. If you verify it later instead of while downloading you lose time. If you have to trust someone else you failed to see the point in running a full node.

Sometimes i see them on Newsgroups (NZB) to download with a news grabber... maybe you could take a look.

Newsgroups. Brings back memories. It's been a while since I used it. You must be a hardcore developer. :-)

Haha yeah... i'm old school.

Newsgroups are still the best for movies though.

Well it isn't over free WiFi. Smiley

I don't know the fastest way to download, but the method involving the least effort seems to be by obtaining a copy on DVD or USB stick.
