BitTorrent is one of the most popular p2p file sharing protocols used over the past years for sharing data. Although it was designed in 2001, the BitTorrent protocol has found its popularity several years later.

Torrent clients are applications capable of properly implementing the BitTorrent protocol.

Therefore, using the BitTorrent protocol, a torrent client must be able to request, prepare, and transmit any type of file over the internet.

Any computer running a torrent client that wants to download a given file must first obtain a torrent file containing all the necessary information about the data to be shared, about the tracker, and about the station coordinating the data sharing.
