Allright, figured it out myself. Turns out if I call
tcp_connection.recv(10, 0) multiple times it will get the next 10 bytes,
followed by the next 10 bytes. Now what I'm wondering is if there is
anyway I can index where I start downloading so I can download from
multiple servers that contain the same file?
