yes aich isn't a filedescriptor, but it's a unique hash related to the file. what user do with it isof no concern to us.
the mainhash and only important for anidb is the ed2khash. as that one + size are the mainidentifier. rest is optional. i see no reason for why not to add an additional hash as aom can create those hashes and so autocreq them.
and don't tell me aich is encouraging dl's or something
md5 is winny
sha-1 is share
ed2k is ed2k
all hashes we got atm can be used for something it's not intended for thats hardly an argument.
