    My suggestion is providing MD5 Checksums to the larger, if not all, files hosted on Romulation.

    This would make verifying the data integrity easier to know if your download was corrupted in anyway.

    (Mainly as my larger downloads keep cutting short due to my fail network)

    I like the idea.

    But of course, your archive program will tell you if the archive is corrupted or not as well :)

    Yeah I don't see the point, the archive program already tells you this. If it extracts then it's 100% guaranteed valid, if it doesn't then it's buggered. There is no middle way.
