I used to download the large files with wget because I can simplyresume the download tasks with -c option. This option will checkthe size of the output file, and download the rest of the file from the server.I can even restart the download task with a different URI. This featureis not available in many sophisticated download managers.
Recently, I came across Aria2, which is a command line download managerwhich supports lots of protocols, including HTTP, FTP, BitTorrents, and etc.Similar to wget, I can resume the download tasks without problems! Andthere are several features which are not available in wget:
- Multiple tasks and scheduling
- Split the download task and download the file in parallel
- Web UI
- ... and etc
