Impossible to get torrents with more than 1000 files

I understand that it was a design decision to not allow selecting of individual files off torrent files, but the problem is that when there are more than 1000 files in the torrent, that download is simply not possible as your system doesn't support extracting that many files (or it simply rejected to download... can't remember exactly). Allow us to select some files to download or at least do not try to extract the file and just leave it as it is so we can take care of it (or download the file anyway and store it as it is).

    i can answer this for you because there was already another topic about this. which

    This is a design decision we had to make long ago, when we were choosing our torrent client.

    It has proven to be the right decision cost-wise, so we are sticking with it. "

    Still no way to download torrents with more than 1000 files. Problem not solved. I DO NOT say that you have to do this or that. I have a problem, which is that I have no way to bring this thousand file torrent to my computer by using your service.

    Right and there is no way around it. If you need the 1000 file torrent then dl a client just for that and remove it when done if you "need" the file

    Being an expected feature, I insist that this remains open. If I was allowed use a client on my machine, I, for sure, would have already installed it. Thanks for your very wise and clever comment.
