Torrents or filehost direct downloads? Which one do you prefer and why?

-
I have always been more of a file-host direct download kind of guy.
I have been using Internet Download Manager for years, which maximizes my download speed even as a free user on some hosts.

I've been using bittorrent since its inception, filehosts piss me off with all the publicity and captchas and popups, plus it's too slow.

Torrents, all devices I have use them, it goes a lot faster, and most hosts are sketchy, slow, and annoying. Be sure to use a magnet link if you can!

direct download is preferable
don't like torrent much, cause i have poor upload rate
most likely to using seedbox when i need file from torrent
