As a PC user, I never got the Mac version of the game. But since I'm distributing the PC version at www.savecoh.com, I have also got a lot of requests for the Mac version. So I'm calling out to people who have the Mac version of i24 beta to join the .torrent and help seed it for everybody who no longer has it.
You can find the torrent at http://www.savecoh.com/p/download-issue-24-beta.html
I'm hope to see more seeds joining up soon :)
About 97% of each torrent is the PIGG data, which is the same for both. So if you have the PC version and want to help seed the Mac version:
- Start the torrent and let it create the directory structure
- Stop the torrent
- Copy the contents of "CohBeta\piggs" to "City of Heroes Beta Mac.app\Contents\Resources\transgaming\c_drive\coh\piggs"
- Force the torrent to re-check
- Start the torrent
Seeding it from my server, plenty of bandwidth. Think I'll add the PC Beta client as well.
I'm a Comcast customer, unfortunately if I even smell like a Torrent they send people over to throttle me. Or something like that.

I wonder how they handle WoW players, since its launcher uses BitTorrent behind the scenes to distribute patches.
They "invite" them for a long walk off a short pier. Cliché, I know, but the guy who runs the ISP office happens to own a pier.
