Wat is een TORRENT-bestand?
A TORRENT file is used by BitTorrent and other peer-to-peer (P2P) programs to download content, such as videos, music, games, or documents, over the Internet. It contains metadata that describes the content and tells the program where to find it. For example, a TORRENT file specifies the file names, sizes, and folder structure of the content.

Torrenting is the process of downloading or sharing content using the BitTorrent network. To start, users open a TORRENT file in BitTorrent, which then downloads the content. BitTorrent splits each file into small pieces and downloads them from multiple computers at once, making downloads faster. Your computer may also share pieces of the file with other users while downloading.
