Small Tutorial on Torrents

Torrent (or BitTorrent) technology is arguably the best; if you need anything ranging from games to movies to songs, you can download through very easy and simple steps. If you are new to it, here's how easy it is:
  • Download a torrent downloader software. I find uTorrent quite easy and feature rich
  • Goto a torrent site. I usually access isohunt
  • Search for anything you want to download, click on download and it'll open up uTorrent automatically
  • Save it to your desired destination path
Just ensure you get the torrent with right language version from the website.

As for uTorrent, it also has features like controlling bandwidth (upload and download both) plus scheduler mode as well, using which you can easily turn it off during various timings, if you require more bandwidth for web browsing or other applications.
