bittorrent based repository?

I start feeling a little bad after downloading hundreds of megs of stuff but not lending upload support to the repositories. Is there something that can be done here other than search for the packages through torrent search engines or google? Is there a bittorrent enabled package manager?

never heard of one, but a brilliant idea
