The old streaming engine, you could download things over time and as many requests as you want to. If the connection dropped in the middle, it would be fine until it reached that point, and then it would just spin forever, which actually created lots of bugs and problems. The newer streaming is much simpler, but will actually address what most people use it for, which is just fast start.
