Ok... termites might be burroughing through my skull, but it sounds like the server would be distributing not the data itself but just a 100% PAR version when can be reconfigured into anything on the other in.
Is that like having a 500MB file but 1GB of PAR and as long as you manage to get any mix of that which will equal 500MB with no redundant bits (and there is the kicker), you should be able to reconstruct the file.
I mean no matter how hard you try, if your missing two files and you only have one PAR file, copying the PAR file and saying you have two doesn't work... Right?
