How difficult (or even possible) would it be to add torrentzip functionality to THE BEST rom manager?

Being that Torrentzip is a Sourceforge project, the source code is available to all, correct?

I'm not trying to pester ot even ask for this feature, just more curious if it is even possible. I'm just glad that ClrMame exists! :P

I should make this answer sticky.

It won't be included.
Why you ask?

- slow down of processes (since you have to reorder the zip after each operation)

- legal issues. I already got requests from official site to not even allow scanning of such torrent-zip modified zips (easy answer: it's used to share roms illegally).
