Why TranceAddict doesn't like Download Accelerator programs

Why no download accelerators?
-----------------------------

Picture a huge pitcher of beer - that is my available bandwidth

Each person on dialup gets 1 straw
Each person on a fast connection gets a few straws..

They all suck up the beer at a certain rate, somebody can refill the beer (the bandwidth) if that rate is kept at a certain level, but, if some people decide to come in with 20 or 30 straws (Download Accelerators) then they screw it all up - and soon there is NO BEER left and it can't be poured fast enough to keep up with the straws and NOBODY gets drunk (Singles/Livesets/Videos).
