BitTorrent is good and similar to FreeCache in that it balances download "horizontically". BitTorrent uses other BitTorrent clients for this balancing; these clients often become un-available after a particular file is not popular anymore. The FreeCache system utilizes permanent FreeCaches that don't go away (although particular files get flushed out after a while). Unlike BitTorrent, the FreeCache system is transparent to the end-user.

of the time this is caused by your e-mail provider (Yahoo, hotmail etc) either blocking our e-mails or putting them into your spam folder.

Put another way, BT lives on top of the Web, which means that all of the searching/listing of available files is done on the web, in our case in the download section of Blackhole Motorsports. When you find a file you want to download, you click on it and the BitTorrent client program will run and ask you where to put it, and then start downloading.

The .torrent files are basically text files with general information about the shared file (size, name, etc) inside of them. The server saves this information about the shared files. Then, a user downloads the torrent and opens it with a client. The client gets the server address from inside the torrent, connects to it and asks who it should connect to get the file. The server responds with a list of 50 random ips from the peer list (or less, depending in how many clients are connected).
