Torrent

A torrent is a way to share and download large files over the internet more effectively. Instead of getting a file from one server, a torrent breaks the file into small pieces and shares these pieces between many users. Each person, called a “peer,” helps by sharing parts of the file they have. This method speeds up downloads and eases the burden on any single server.

Torrents are often used for sharing big files like software, movies, and music. However, it’s important to make sure the files you’re downloading are legal, as torrents can sometimes be used to share copyrighted material without permission.
