How Do You Speed Up Torrent Downloads?

If you are downloading a movie from thepiratebay.org using your torrent client, it will normally take days to finish it. This is true if you have very slow connection and if there are not enough seeders. Seeders are those that seed (obviously) the download usually for days. Instead of simply downloading the file, they would seed it so that others can get the file or program quickly. The opposite is a leecher which I normally become to speed up my download.

So how do you do this? First is to make sure your torrent client is open. Then, right click on your download. Point to Bandwidth Allocation and select HIGH.

After that, right click on your download again. Point to Bandwidth Allocation again and go to SET DOWNLOAD LIMIT. Make sure it is set to UNLIMITED

Next, go to Set Upload Limit below Set Download Limit. This time, make sure it is at 1 kb/s

And that's it. Your download will be faster, you LEECH! LOL

Another thing to note is that like what I have mentioned, the file that you may be downloading does not have enough seeders. It is always recommended that you choose a file that has many seeders. The more seeders, the faster the download.

In thepiratebay.org, click on SE to sort the results by the number of seeders.

As you can see, the one with the highest number of seeders will place at the top.

Tip: Even though a file has thousands of seeders, your connection still plays a role in the speed of the download. Beware of downloads that come from Anonymous uploaders which have thousands of seeders. Not only did you waste your time waiting for the download to finish but you may also get a virus when you open the file. Look at this:

This has 13000+++ seeders. It's impossible for it to acquire such huge number of seeders when it was just uploaded 54 minutes ago. To make sure that you are downloading the right thing, always check the comments. If there are no comments and yet the file has thousands of seeders, you can bet it is fake.

Have fun downloading!

How Do You Download Movies?

Some movies are great but most are not so awesome. In fact, movies like Battleship bored me to death. I skipped the movie and went out of the cinema. The movie is so crap that I didn't care about the cash I paid to see it. i just wanted to go home before the half part of the movie. Then I regretted it. I wish there are refunds when the movie is so bad. After all, we're the customers. But of course, that would be a perfect world. And right now, our world is not perfect...even Hollywood is failing to deliver quality movies.

So what I do is download movies over the Internet instead of going to the cinemas (unless the trailer is so good). How do I do it? The answer is very simple and it is quite well-know. All you need is to visit thepiratebay.org. Alternatively, you can use the direct link here: thepiratebay.se. Searching the movie is pretty easy. All you need to do is to enter the title of the movie. Take a look at this:

thepiratebay.org

Press Enter and your results will look like this:

results page

Click on one of the results and download.

download page

As you can see, there are at least three boxes that says DOWNLOAD. Pretty tricky huh? The link that you should click is the one that says GET THIS TORRENT. 

When you click on the encircled link above, it will open your torrent client (if it's set to respond that way). If you don't know what a torrent client is or you don't have one, I recommend using BitTorrent It's the one I've been using for many years now and so far, no problems with the program. You can get your copy of the software here: http://www.bittorrent.com/downloads It's a free program. :)

Now, back to downloading your movie. You should start downloading it now and soon, you will have the movie and watch it at your own PC without paying the movie theater. If you don't like the movie you have downloaded, delete it from your PC.

Tip: Since there are plenty of results when you search for a movie in Pirate Bay, you have to be careful of those that upload viruses along with the files. Beware of files that come in .RAR format. Movies should be in AVI, MP4 or MKV.

Happy downloading!
