New to torrentinvites.org few questions for yall :)

Hi everybody, I just joined the forum and have a few short questions:
I've been using torrent websites like piratebay and rargb in the past. I was looking for 2160p movie torrents and tv show torrents when my research led me to this website. I discovered a word I had never heard before "seedbox". I'm familiar with torrenting, VPNs trackers etc... but not with seedboxes.

Q1: What is a seedbox?
Q2: Is it some sort of a computer that I own and use at home?
Q3: What's the point of using a seedbox instead of public websites like rargb or pirate bay?

Thanks for the knowledge sharing :)

on rarbg and TPB you can catch nasty virus but not on private trackers who are safe..

read this guide about seedboxes below, hope that will help you..

I must add that when you d/l from public trackers, your ISP can see and report you and you can get fined or jailed..

a seedbox is something you rent from a provider like seedboxes.cc where once setup, you can add torrents from private trackers and it will seed them 24/7 all the time w/o any intervention from you, you just access it trough a GUI provided by the seedbox provider and if you need to grab a torrent, use some program like FileZilla which you can set a secure connection to your seedbox and d/l what you want and no one except you will know..

Highly recommended, good luck :)

I still don't understand what is the seed box exactly. I mean I do, but I don't at the same time lol...

WHERE is the seed box located?
You say that using a seed box, I'm seeding all day...?! So.... It uses my internet bandwidth? Or is a seed box a remote server thingy?

If I got this right a seedbox is kind of like a VPN service for which you have to pay every month. The difference being that a seedbox focuses on seeding and allowing its owner/user to download filed off it? Right?

Once I do have a seedbox where can I find librairies of remuxes and stuff? I hear you need to get invited or something like that?

I started searching but there seems to be like dozens of private "forums" or private tracker websites.

I'm not sure where to begin, I figured I'd find a tutorial on this website but there are like 20 different entire tutorial threads... I don't have 45 hours of time to sink into reading all the TLDR ��

Can anybody give me the short version? Or the plain English explanation?

Thanks guys

Yes I did google it before coming here. Like I said, I'm pretty sure I got the jist of it... but I just never dabbled in Seedboxes before, so the concept itself eluded me for a bit. Thanks for replies anyhow.

It pointed me in the right direction. Now I just have to follow the guides from this forum to find some good private servers :)
