Aria2 is an open source command line tool which can download files using various protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, Metalink).
Don't be put off by 'command line' - aria2 isn't difficult to use. At a minimum, you can download files just by entering their URL, like aria2c http://www.domain.com/folder1/bigfile.pdf
If you'd like to take more control, though, aria2 has a vast number of optional commands. Would you like to download a file via multiple connections? Validate a download to check its integrity? Resume an interrupted download, throttle your download speed, set a user name/ password for authentication? It's all here, and the torrent support is particularly impressive (DHT, PEX, Encryption, Magnet URI, Web-Seeding, Selective Downloads, Local Peer Discovery and UDP tracker).
Aria2 is a lightweight multi-protocol & multi-source command-line download utility. It supports HTTP/HTTPS, FTP, SFTP, BitTorrent and Metalink. Aria2 can be manipulated via built-in JSON-RPC and XML-RPC interfaces. Aria is the ultimate media player for MAC and Windows PC's. Aria is for people who want to do more with their media. Aria features three modes: The DJ (disc jockey) MODE makes it easy to DJ. In the question“What are the best Torrent clients?” aria2 is ranked 5th while Folx is ranked 8th. The most important reason people chose aria2 is: Has support for lots of download protocols including BitTorrent, Metalink, HTTP, HTTPS and FTP.
These commands may be combined, sometimes with impressive results: the program can download the same file in separate chunks from HTTP and FTP servers, while uploading everything you've got so far to a BitTorrent swarm.
But again, don't be put off by any apparent complexity. There are simpler features, too. Point aria2 at a text file containing URLs, for example, and it'll read, download and save them all: very convenient.

aria2 1.31.0
Release Note
This release fixes assertion error in
SimpleRandomizer::getRandomBytes. It adds new option
content-disposition-default-utf8.
Changes
Better error message when local file status cannot be retrieved
GH-836
Fix assertion failure in SimpleRandomizer::getRandomBytes
errno might not be initialized to 0, and we may get both rv -1
and errno != ENOSYS. This leads to assertion failure. Since
getrandom_linux always returns -1 on failure, checking errno is
useless in this function.
GH-823
Aria2 Gui Windows
Add option content-disposition-default-utf8
Verdict
An easy-to-use (by command line standards) but amazing configurable download utility.
