U can pause it, it gets actually streamed. U can already begin to play if u haven't downloaded it fully

he means that you can pause at any time, and that you can even play before it is finished, but i wouldn't recommend that
just start downloading it and pause whenever you want, the next time it will continue from where you stopped

I'll find it hard to download, I cant buy a DVD, the CD KEY is 2.85K INR, a CD would be 4.2K INR....

in a sense yes. It is the same client, so if u buy it u can use it the same. U can play some cutom games with a few maps and see if u have much lag etc.
