F'ed up Torrent

Is it possible for a torrent download to get corrupted, and bits and pieces of MP3s actually cross over into each other? I'm puzzled right now, I think it might have been a crappy rip.

Torrents have a checksum or a hash usually to prevent that. Chances are it's a bad rip.
It just like cuts right into other tracks, I'm puzzled as to how this happened in the first place.

You feel like neffing or you feel like neffing? Anyone interested in actually helping me figure out how this happened, please reply, otherwise, nef elswhere
 
Either way I'm redownloading this, but sh!t, you'd have to be a horrible ripper to actually have bits of OTHER SONGS on the CD just fly in like that :laugh:
 
Did the torrent actually finish downloading?

One time, I d/led this album by this guy who's name rhymes with Ron and his last name rhymes with Layer, and I guess I accidentally stopped the D/L before it was 100% finished (I think I was at 70%ish)...anyways, I queue up the album into winamp and start playing the tracks. However, after like 20 secs, it starts jumping to other parts of the songs and each track did that.

I then realized I didn't finish the D/L and once I had it complete, it ran fine.

I think BT d/ls the stuff in chunks and then after it has it all, reorganizes it or something....not really sure.
