Torrent: You download 1 small size.. Then you open it with a torrent manager. It works of the principals of a normal p2p program (like Bearshare or Limwire) but it is ONLY for the file you want.. So there are usually much people who are sharing(seeding) it. These torrents can download fast or slow (i get 400kb/s and sometimes 4kb/s) so you can run the program automaticly when windows starts and you have to be patient.
The cool thing of torrents is that you find A LOT of stuff there. (Iso's, Movie's, Serie's,... rare stuff,...)
Best torrent managers:
Bitcomet (http://www.bitcomet.com/index.htm)
Azureus (http://azureus.sourceforge.net)
If u use Opera as a Browser .. It has an integrated Torrent Client

It is outlawed to down load copyrighted torrents and you can enter into trouble. I suggest employing a VPN service when getting torrents. I'm using http://www.vpnmaster.org theypermit torrents on their European VPN servers.
