Torrent sites are often well organized, and you can find them without porn, and there are entire sites devoted to LEGAL torrents, so you can avoid the whole warez thing. If I knew how to seed my own files, I would seed videos... Anyone can help me with that, I'd be appreciative....

Does it then begin to methodically go through the list of packets until it finds one (or more) that are available? Then, once it is done, does it list that packet as available from one source on a given channel? That's just my best guess, of course.

Oh and what kind of torrenter do you guys use? I still use the default Bitorrent one, is this good or would other programs speed up the download process?
