Hi,

The best way is to download from the ubuntu website, but the very fact that
many people download from this website means that you may get slow speeds.
So, it is advisable to download from a torrent.

Of course, if your download speed is less than 512 Kbps, then it doesn't
really matter where you download from, you'll get the same speed.

Regards,
Rigved
