i've been pulling out my now gray hair looking for a solid resume partial download method for 2+ weeks. Thank you for this fast easy solution. +100 points for all :)

it's not work for me, but that's code from ramtinak is work, and must remove "else if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)"

@ramtinak 's code works, however, no matter the number of chunks, it always takes the same amount of time to download the whole file,
actually, i have another code who downloads in single thread, and takes exactly the same amount of time.
Therefore... it breaks the purpose of Parallel downloads: to save time.

2 Chunks should download in half the time than 1.
4 Chunks should download in half the time than 2.
