The torrent file contains metadata information about the files you are wanting to download. It also contains a list of servers from which you are able to connect to other systems which are sharing the file you want. Other information contained in the torrent file such as file sizes, folder structure, encrypted hash values for the files, etc. NOTE: Because you are not downloading the program from the server, but from other peer systems, this system known as a peer-to-peer file sharing network.
