	~~=== Current ===~~		To provide downloads we use a network of mirrors across the globe to provide the best possible location to download from. For actually distributing the downloads and making sure you will download from the best server available we have been using Mirrorbits, which has been operating since August 2015 and so far hasn't failed us yet. This is a great piece of software that constantly checks the status of the mirrors and dishes out files based on certain criteria, in an effort to ensure that downloads work as quickly and reliably as possible. Besides these builds it also hosts all the add-on which you can find in our official kodi.tv repository.
