Downloading Torrents

Click on colored links to go there.
This post will be related to downloading Torrents. Torrents are a file which is any audio, video, a program or pictures and can be very large in size. Torrents are the modern way to download files like the early Napster, Limewire or Kazaa use to be. To down load a torrent, a program (client) is needed to download the file. Several torrent clients I have found to be of good quality are programs called "Bitspirit" & "Azureus". There are many others but I use these particular ones.
Once you have downloaded and installed one of these programs, you will need to go to torrent search web sites and type in what file (music title, video title, program title) you would like to download. **Please note that at this present time you are not SUPPOSE to download any copyright material.
When you chose a title to download, you then chose to "Download Torrent" and this will bring up your torrent client program and the download will begin. Depending on the size of the file and other Internet conditions,this can take from hours to days to complete the download.
Each torrent client has it's own settings that can help in download speed and performance.
If this subject is of interest to you. Links to the torrent client programs and to torrent search web sites can be found below.
