I suggest you use wget --continue.  If for some reason it fails in one-shot, then when you run it again, it will continue from where it left off.  That should work with most http servers.  For me, I find direct download is typically faster than torrents, assuming the server has a good connection and rtt latency is lower than most torrent peers.
