People will want to download chicks or parts of the torrent, you should leave them separate.
Makes sense. What about individual folders? I'm concerned that the massive amount of small files could slow down the download quite a bit. Unfortunately, I'm not too familiar with the BitTorrent protocol, so I don't know if this would have an impact.
Small files don’t impact BitTorrent transfers. They’re sent in pieces of a fixed size, and those pieces can contain multiple files.
Depends on final size of the folder zips. 20-30mb? Sure. 200-300? Nah.
