What is BitTorrent?

BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer file sharing protocol used to distribute large amounts of files. Someone who would like to distribute a file or collection of files (MP3, MPG, PDF, AVI, EXE, etc) acts as the first seed.  Each peer computer who downloads the data also uploads them to other peers.

Where can I get a BitTorrent client?

You can choose from many.  Including the official BitTorrent client, the more advanced BitTornado, the multi-torrent frontend Azureus, the multi-purpose Limewire, and the ultra compact µTorrent.

What is a .torrent file?

A .torrent file (aka metafile) is a small file containing the information necessary for your BitTorrent client to download a larger file.

What are seeds?

A seed is a client that has a complete copy of the data of a certain torrent.  Uploading a complete file is called seeding.  The key philosophy of BitTorrent is that users should upload (transmit outbound) at the same time they are downloading (receiving inbound.)  In this manner, network bandwidth is utilized as efficiently as possible. BitTorrent is designed to work better as the number of people interested in a certain file increases.

What are leechers?

A leecher is a client that is currently downloading a torrent.  Generally a leecher does not have the complete file, otherwise it would be called a seed.

What is a tracker?

A server on the internet that acts to coordinate the actions of BitTorrent clients. When you open a torrent, your machine contacts the tracker and asks for a list of seeds and peers to connect to.  The central server (called a tracker) coordinates the action of all such peers.  The tracker only manages connections, it does not have any knowledge of the contents of the files being distributed, and therefore a large number of users can be supported with limited bandwidth.
