How do Torrents work ?

[manny78]

Ok let's say I have this link

http://www.mininova.org/tor/268283

Now what am I suppose to do. When I tried to dowload the file, it came up with a 36k file that had nothing. Pretty useless. Do I need another program ? Is it better to just stick to Limewire and other P2P prgram since its less BS ?

ok, download bittorrent.
install program
run program
double click the madonna torrent file
download will start, if the torrent is not dead.

public torrent sites blow the cock.

What is a good place ? Is there an inner circle ?

azureus is a resource hog...i never liked it.

there sure is an inner circle. the best torrent sites on the net are private, and you need to be invited to them, share as much as you download, and maybe donate 5 bucks here and there.

but....oh is it worth it.

private torrent sites > *

they always have EVERYTHING you could ever possibly want or need, there are never dead torrents, you can request stuff and have someone setup a torrent in a matter of hours, the speeds are always incredible, etc, etc, etc, etc.

i got lucky, and this guy gave me an invite to Oink, because i had something obsure he wanted.
