HTTP(S) Downloads

HTTP downloading targets mainstream internet transfer protocols. XDown adds segmented multi-connection downloads and resume support on top of normal browser downloading.

XDown supports up to 128 concurrent connections. If the remote server does not limit connection count, segmented downloading can greatly improve throughput.
