Launcher for downloading PR not torrent?

I'm sure this has been suggested before, but there is a huge download barrier for people attempting to start playing PR. More specifically, people just don't know how to rip ISO files and download torrents.

The game already has patching feature for people who have already downloaded the game, and I don't see why the initial download couldn't be done in a similar way. There's probably a cost barrier, or maybe the full game needs to be there for the launcher? A minecraft style download would be really nice for PR

CDNs are expensive.

There is a download link in the download section for a none-torrent download. I don't see an issue here?

To that point, anyone who can't wrap their head around installing a torrent app or double-clicking a file is not going to be capable of playing PR to any standard.

Well there are quite a lot of old people who play PR, how they installed PR, must be a miracle :)
