Wtf are TORRENS SITES ? >>>>>>>>>> asked by santosh giri >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> An Overview of Torrent Sharing Question: What exactly is "BitTorrent" sharing? Answer: BitTorrent networking is the latest form of Internet P2P (peer-to-peer) file sharing. BitTorrents (a term synonymous with "torrents") work by simultaneously downloading small bits of files from many web sources. Torrent downloading is extremely easy to use, and is completely non-profit and free of user subscription fees. QQQ>>How are torrents special? How is the torrent community different from Kazaa or Limewire? Answer: Like the other file-sharing networks (Kazaa, Limewire, Gnutella, eDonkey, and Shareaza) BitTorrent’s primary purpose is to distribute large media files to private users. Unlike most P2P networks, however, BitTorrent stands out for 5 major reasons: BitTorrent networking is NOT a publish-subscribe model like Kazaa; instead, BitTorrent is true Peer-Peer networking where the users do the actual file serving. Torrents enforce quality control by filtering out corrupted and dummy files, ensuring that downloads contain only what they claim to contain. Torrents actively encourage users to share (“seed”) their complete files, while punishing users who "leech". BitTorrent can achieve download speeds over 1500 kilobits per second. BitTorrent code is open-source, advertising-free, and adware/spyware-free. This means that no single person profits from BitTorrent's success.
