    SFV?

    Simple File Verification - used to verify that the files that you've downloaded are not corrupt.

    To use sfv files you need a program like QuickSFV:

    SFV (Simple File Verificator) files are used to ensure if files are:
    - not corrupt
    - not missing

    For example, with RARs it's important that we got all the parts and that none of the RAR files is corrupt... If it is RAR will tell us (if its new RAR that is). However to know that rar file 020 is corrupt we need to have previous 19 files to test... SFV allows us to test any file at any time without the need to have other files.

    Further more for mp3s we might never notice a file missing (afterall, other songs will play allright) but thanks to sfv its easy to spot which file is missing.
