Comment:

Hi gnokii, this request comes up from time to time, but we don't want to
have torrent links on the main getfedora page. Mirrors have more or less
the same speed and you will get the closest mirror to you, while torrents
are less verified because they get shared by private persons. Torrents
also have a negative flavor, specially in some countries, therefor we
decided to not add them them on getfedora.

We are working on an alternative downlaod page, which you can see in
staging under https://alt.stg.fedoraproject.org/ where we will have all
other download images and also secondary architectures.
