I was trying to download Football Manager, it has more "seeds" than "leeches" (whatever the hell that means) and most of the comments are positive. Should it be ok to download?

Oh right thanks I'll probably download a couple and see how it goes, they seem damn confusing to me though lol.

piratebay is probably the most popular public torrent site out there.

Check the comments for a torrent before you download anything, saves later problems or wasting your time.

Make sure you know how to convert, unpack or deal with what you will receive.

Dont forget to seed when your download has finished.
