What is Turbine Download Manager (TDM)?

TDM is a download manager that uses peer-to-peer (P2P) protocol. Peer-to-peer protocol allows players to download large files. What this means for our players is each person downloading these files will share a portion of their upload bandwidth, allowing other players to download the same files. This connection sharing increases overall download speeds for all players using TDM. TDM is designed to dynamically adjust to the resource availability of your PC and should not noticeably affect overall performance. The more players to use TDM, the better the download performance will be. TDM will only download files that are specific to LOTRO. No other files will be shared or uploaded to other players, and no personal information will be obtained when using TDM.
