I am not very familiar with torrent files, but I am slowly getting into them. Torrents are small bits (bytes) of software or files that are downloaded, piece by piece, and fitted together to make a whole. Think of torrent files as a big jigsaw puzzle: the pieces are individual and scattered, but when you accumulate the pieces and fit them together, it creates a picture. Torrents are popular for large software and shareware programs (which is why I have been starting to get into it), and in other cases, torrents are popular for movies (which are huge, huge files and nearly impossible to download all at once on a slower IP connection) and music torrents. One blossoming website that has a treasure-trove of torrents is Queen Torrents. It’s a simple website– you search for the files you need for that movie, song, game, or whatever. It’s free, too. Queen Torrent is always accumulating new stuff, too.

Be aware that downloading torrent files of copyrighted material is not illegal per se, but compiling the material together when you have all the files probably is illegal in some countries. So when in doubt, don’t download copyrighted material!
