Thanks! Looking at the wget manual at https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/wget.html , I see "Wget has been designed for robustness over slow or unstable network connections; if a download fails due to a network problem, it will keep retrying until the whole file has been retrieved. If the server supports regetting, it will instruct the server to continue the download from where it left off."
Aspera claims to be faster than HTTP or FTP and appears to be based on UDP. I think of HTTP as a layer on top of TCP which is a layer on top of UDP.
Bit Torrent is also interesting since it spreads the "server side" around.
