Guys I just discovered something really interesting that I want to share,
As the title says I have the link for each file of your wow data (only for MPQ files)
Step I:
follow this if you don't have cata 4.3.4 already installed accept for letting backgrounddownloader.exe to download data
if you have cata client but never ran wow.exe or backgrounddownloader.exe then run backgrounddownloader.exe and close it as soon as it says downloading "WOW-4.3.3.15354-to-4.3.4.15595-patch".
if not both cases above you can proceed to step 2
Step 2:
Copy the following link into the web browser

just make sure to change *.mpq with each file name in your data folder
eg. for expansion1.mpq link will beSpoiler:Show
and let the browser/your downloader download the file, once done copy it to wow/data folder
Do this for all files in wow folder
Step 3:
For locale files the link is

Here replace xxXX by your locale and *.MPQ by each mpq file in data/xxXX folder
eg. for expansion1-locale-enUS.MPQ file it will be
Spoiler:Show
after downloading all locale files in xxXX folder copy them to wow/data/xxXX folder.
Step 4 (optional):
Now what is remaing is just the cinematics that launch on starting the game for first time... they can be streamed in game or by backgrounddownloader.exe (this is hardly of 200mb)
Now run game and enjoy
Note: These links don't work for wotlk, I tried finding similar links for wotlk but I couldn't
Credit: The whole credit is not mine, I could find such links on www.ac-web.org for MoP so found similarity between them and by changing them a bit and testing them I posted this here
List of files:

If you have already got some of these files right click on them and select properties, then check if value against "size:" and "size on disk:" is same, if it is file is completely downloaded no need for downloading it, if not the value against the "size on disk:" tells the amount of the file downloaded
Thanks to boggtroll for asking me to add this list
EDIT: also you can replace NA (North America server) with EU (European server) or KR (Korean server) in the link as per the closest location (Thanks to Raimizu for pointing out this point here)
