I wonder - why they can't get all the info from logs. They can even
put .htaccess to route all downloads trough PHP that will log whatever
else it needs..

I'm just annoyingly copying URL and deleting first part of it - it's
simpler that to quote whole URL.. And without quoting - bash can't
correctly interpret the ? stuff..
