presumable "on steroids" means "with a fancy GUI".

rsync does this too. rsync can push or pull.

besides, there are plenty of rsync gui's, too.

however, bittorrent is almost certainly the best solution for this purpose -- the real question is coherency. You always know that eventually you'll have a complete and perfect copy at each location -- but how do you know WHEN that copy is complete so you can work on it? if this is strictly a backup system, then it's not needed, but it's probably not a good thing to be using files as they're being written:

some scripting -- rsync or BTdownload -- would fix this. copy the files to a working location when the update is complete, and then work from there while updates are restarted on the temp dir.
