Continuous failures, excessive CPU, downloads stop for no reason, etc ...

This is not Beta. This is alpha.

Oh, I forget. The interface is not fully Cocoa, cocoa would be much better in full-cocoa.

Geekfun Technology Inc (developer) replied on 13 May 2012

We solved most of mentioned issues in 0.9.5. Please have a try if you will. And the UI is full cocoa.

CanaryEGP replied on 13 May 2012

With cocoa, I meant the download progress bar is something different from OS X

Geekfun Technology Inc (developer) replied on 14 May 2012

Most UI elements are not final. Will have big changes. But there won't be the OSX typical "wriggling-blue" progress bars. That design looks horrible when a users gets 10+ active transfers going. And Thanks! We just want you to know that we do appreciate every feedback of yours.

CanaryEGP replied on 14 May 2012

Ok, good to know: D When you take out the next version'll comment you about it and improve it to all, now I think it is the downloader with best concept for OS X.

Looks very interesting, I'll try it ASAP.

Regarding the pricing, will it remain free after beta?

There will still be a free version, but with some feature limitations.

Really nice UI and does the job well. Can you possibly remove the continuous Console logging?

Sure. In final versions we'll remove the intense console output, for beta we need it for debugging.

it was an issue with theunarchiver 3.0 to be precise, expanding it incorrectly, nothing to do with speedtao

Promising download manager but why is this Lion only? I cannot find one reason why it should not work on SL.

Geekfun Technology Inc (developer) replied on 23 Mar 2012

We used some Lion only APIs in SpeedTao and there are some other pure technical concerns . SL support will not be in 1.0 final, but we'll see what we can do after the ML support is done.

Looks very promising. I only wish it supported using AppleScript to add downloads remotely or, even better, had a remote UI.
