Without this fix I couldn't download a single file today. The download was constantly interrupted, and I had to start over. With this fix the files were downloaded, interruptions occurred approximately every 17 MB, but with retries the download progressed steadily. For cases with an unstable network this fix is a must.
In addition, it adds verbosity to what the program does. Without it, I had to monitor the resource monitor to understand that the program is alive and downloading traffic. (Files come in segments of ~77 MB, and until the entire segment is downloaded, the program does not show signs of life on the console)
I would be happy if this PR was accepted to master.
