Yakk, that was one of the most concise explanations of torrents I've seen to date. Nice work!

And Ballplayer, in case you didn't get it, .torrents aren't media files. You don't "play" a torrent. When you download DaveMatthewsDiscology.torrent, that just gives your BitTorrent client (like Azureus or BitTornado) instructions on how to download that file from peers. It's a file sharing protocol.

Edit: Why's this in the programming forum?
