Pros
Lowered download time significantly
Useful for preventing file corruption
Convenient and easy to use
Cons
Limitation on file size (unable to download 5GB or more)
Extremely useful and high quality extension. Let alone the nice speedup and threaded downloads - this can also help prevent file corruption of large single file downloads from personal experience with certain ISPs or rather likely certain areas with issues in their network equipment or lines somewhere in the hub area.
Anyway great utility.
