Torrent Program?

Ok, most people probably don't know what a Torrent Program is....and in my limited search - it appears to me to be a WAREZ type program that allows users to bypass the normal chain of purchase etc and capture programs without paying for them.

Now please educate me if I'm incorrect in my education via search but if I'm correct in my interpretation then please don't bump this thread again, as a moderator for the forums, we have to be careful about promoting or allow to promote such WAREZ type threads.
 
Torrents are alternate and faster download streamers and are in now way limited to "warez" type outfits - they are extremely useful for large downloads such as Linux OS .iso images, for example. uTorrent is only around 500k and freeware, and I've tried it, but saw no real speed gains over the usual Ubuntu download mirror (tested both).

I know of none that are available for Palm, and even if they were I doubt it would get you any speed increase due to the Palm's limitations. I know on a "stock" PC, you often have to use TCP Optimizer to boost the MRU # to 1500 just to see ANY benefit to a torrent download. If the PC sees little or no gain, I'd imagine the Palm would be zero.
