How do you open these files? I'm not familiar with
this "torrent" thing...
tried renaming them to just .asf for Windows Media Player 10, but got some
error message about the wrong codec or whatever.
First you need to install the BitTorrent client. It talks
to the peer-to-peer network. The .torrent file is just a link,
it's not the movie. Once the client is installed, if you open
a .torrent link, it'll connect to the network and download
the file. Then you'll be in WMP-land.
