bittorent on dialup



A number of media files I want to download are available only on
bittorrent format.  I know about the advantages of bittorrent for
broadband users with underutilized bandwidth.  But I'm on dialup.
My bandwidth gets saturated with a simple "wget -c linux.iso" (a
52K modem that feels more like 45K).  So are there any
disadvantages to using bittorent with a plain dialup line?
