BitTorrent

Many of you have probably heard about torrents, but not everyone knows what it is. The BitTorrent technology allows you to download files of any type over the Internet – any content, such as music, a movie or an application, consists of bits (a unit of information). In a global network that connects the computers of a huge number of people, a certain file may be on the PC of many users. So, using the BitTorrent technology, the file is downloaded simultaneously from several sources, at the end of the download it is converted into a single file.

The advantages of this are obvious – high speed and the ability to pause the download at any time, after which, after resuming the download, there is no loss of already downloaded data. In simple terms, a torrent is an algorithm for downloading data from the Internet from multiple sources piece by piece. Initially, BitTorrent clients were created only for the Windows platform, that is, they were used exclusively on personal computers. But then, having understood the advantages of the mobile platform, the torrent developers optimized the program’s capabilities for the Android operating system as well – the BitTorrent product performs the functions of its PC counterparts, being compact and easy to use.

The process of interacting with the application BitTorrent is simple and clear, it consists of only a few required items. First, the user should select the desired torrent object on a specialized resource, download it and open it in the program itself (automatic opening can be configured). Then you need to set the directory where the object will be uploaded. By the way, often there are several files at once, you can download them as a package or by ticking only the necessary objects. Before the download process, you can adjust the incoming and outgoing download speed, because at the same time downloading the file, you distribute it to other users.

The developers of the BitTorrent program remind you that it is advisable not to delete the downloaded file immediately after downloading, so to speak, remaining on the “distribution”, but if necessary, you can immediately send it to the “Basket”, no sanctions are provided for this. So, by downloading data using BitTorrent technology, you get high speed and the ability to download files directly to a mobile Android device, bypassing a computer and extra steps for the subsequent transfer of multimedia and software content from a PC to a mobile gadget.
