download the *.torrent file and open it with the BitTorrent client. Then, BitTorrent goes out and downloads the file in pieces from all the computers in the "swarm" and then makes it into one whole file, using md5 checksumming.
So, click on the url for the torrent. Your client should do the rest.

3. Where do you find files? |
|
The only ones I could find were the occasional odd TV show and hundreds and hundreds of Greatful Dead/Phish files.
Not being a big fan of TV, the GD or Phish (though I recognize the merit in the last two), this isn't very helpful.
The concept of a distributed P-2-P network is cool, though.
