the wonders of torrents

we can stop to discuss the technical details of this but i don't think people would like that. torrents provide a way to "share" files over the internet much like kazaa. except torrents are often faster.in kazaa, you download files from just one person, the person who has the file at the time you selected the download. you depend on that computer to stay connected to kazaa as long as it takes so you can download the fle completely.torrents have a better way of sharing files. each person that starts to download can also upload to other computers, you don't have to wait for your download to be complete.all i know is it makes downloading anime and tv episodes faster and easier. i can also download movies and whole cds hehe i can feel the copyright people grinding their teeth. I love it coz i can download the Calcium kid (or Ned Kelly) and all the other movies that will never make their way here in the Philippines ( i really think people in greenhills will finally find rest from all my weird inquiries ).
for more info go here and oh, by the way, if you live in a place that has strict laws, be wary of your internet usage because they can trace you. No matter how old you are, they can get you. just read this article about a twelve year old girl in the US.
