A bit complicated to explain here . The account currently has approx. 100 GB unlimited transfer.
I prefer to wait until, this upload appears on torrents.

Getting it from a torrent makes sense. I would rather do such a large download even slower by torrent but with reliable resuming rather than by a direct-download. Although it probably is already available on a Usenet source. The blu-ray is 14 years old. If it is not already there, then these ZIPS are probably from a private rip. Just my guess.

I have the extended blu-ray version, and can verify that the size of that uloz post is correct.

I had to order this disc from a vendor in Sweden since Amazon, ebay, and everyone else did not (and as far as I can tell still does not) have it in stock. If you use JDownloader you can actually download all 12 files simultaneously - doing 12 captchas one after another is a little irritating, but after that you can just let it go, come back in a few hours and you'll have the whole thing. Other download managers can probably do the same. The browser only seems to allow one file at a time though.

If you use JD you may have to change the settings. In the download tab, go to the All Downloads button in the bottom righthand corner. Next to it is another button with a Tools icon. Hit that, and change the maximum simultaneous downloads to 12.

I know what you mean, and I also know how difficult it can be to find a Scandinavian online retailer that will ship outside Europe. Still, I found a few, which is how I snagged some Astrid Lindgren movies. But Ronja (along with the two Madicken movies) I managed to get from a third party seller on Amazon.co.uk in 2017. Amazon.de was also a great help for others.

ONLY 12? A "little" irritating?? I routinely expand Captchas to a large size, and I still frequently get them wrong. At least ulozto download ones are fairly easy compared to the blurred tiny photos that the ulozto search gozofinder uses, or the even worse ones that opensubtitles uses: half a dozen panels in succession, and if I get one wrong then I have to start all over again. Apparently they consider a motorcyclist's head to be part of the motorcycle. What I want to know is, with all the amazing things computers can do, why this theory that Captchas actually prevent bots from accessing a site?? All they really do is slow down the access of people with poor eyesight and small monitors. It is getting to the point where I do not want to bother looking for subtitles anymore, when it takes so much effort sometimes to accomplish a single opensubtitles search. I feel like Francis Dolarhyde has me strapped down while he keeps asking "Do you see? Do you see?" No I don't! Is that a car or a truck? Is that a motorcyle or a bicycle? Is a scooter considered a motorcycle? Is the railing on the side of the steps considered part of the steps? I DON'T KNOW!!! And take better pictures!!!!
but after that you can just let it go, come back in a few hours and you'll have the whole thing.
A 50Gb ulozto download in a "few hours" -- at the free slow speed?? I don't think so. I recognize that you definitely have far greater Internet speeds than I do, but there has to be a maximum to the free ulozto speeds! If someone has the Premium service, then ulozto's speed is not really a consideration.
Hit that, and change the maximum simultaneous downloads to 12.
I think I have it set to 5, but it would only do 3 from any one source, or at least only 3 from ulozto. (And 2 from other sites.) Maybe that is another setting, hmm. Whatever the max simultaneous from any one source, they all complete at basically the same time. So the downloading is continuous for all 50Gb worth. Maybe a few hours for you, but not for me! Since in this case they are archive files and would ALL have to be available on the same drive for extraction when complete, that is not so much an issue. (Other than my rarely having over 100Gb free unless I delete many of my available eMule uploading files.) But generally it is nice to be able to complete, save externally, and delete downloads to free up space in less than a 12 hour period. After all, the entire point to having multi-part downloads is to be able to COMPLETE one or a few of the parts, and then move on to the next set, rather than having downloading (or uploading) held up for the entire amount. It is quite nice that Jdownloader allows resuming interrupted downloads. Now, if only there was a free UPloader for ulozto that allows resuming interrupted UPloads. That would help even more.

I was wrong. Like you, I got it from Amazon.co.uk, found an old receipt in my email from 2016. No. I never clean out my inbox, ever. If they want to free up space on their servers they'll have to do it themselves! :lol:

As you can see, they no longer carry it. The disc may be out of print now.

I don't have premium. Each file downloads at the roughly 300 kbps uloz speed, so they all finish in the same time it would take any one of them to complete all by itself. If you had ten simultaneous the total effective speed would be about 3 Mbps, typical of many torrent downloads. With 4.3 GB individual files "a few hours" means about 7 or 8.

I don't know why, using JD, you can't get more than 3 going at one time. When I created a second mirror for the La Tutora full BD last week, I downloaded 24 rars from links on blizzardkid and then re-uploaded them on MEGA. I had 12 uloz downloads going at once, and did it in two batches. I don't think there's any magic setting I tweaked on the program at any point that would explain why it works for me but not for you. Who knows? :?

ok, I can believe 8 hours with enough simultaneous. I found my purchase record in my Gmail, so I save all emails that are not immediate spam or trash. Although my Inbox is only for emails I have not read or I am still dealing with doing something about. After that they get "Archived" and can be accessed later easily. If they are not immediately visible, then I know there is nothing I have to do about them. If it is in the Inbox, there is something left undone.

Aha, so by accessing 3 links per country-version of ulozto, that would allow exceeding the 3 maximum simultaneous that I encountered before in Jdownloader2? Clever!

So relic, does this mean that you actually downloaded all 12 parts and verified that they produce a good working extracted file? Or are we still speaking hypothetically here?

The only way I could check that is to transfer the 24+GB iso file to a thumb drive and try it on my TV which I have not tried yet.

So, it is an ISO. We did not even know that! But isn't it 49Gb instead of 24Gb?
