Best Solution to Download from YourBitTorrent on macOS for free

Olga Weis

YourBitTorrent is a file-sharing platform that was originally launched in 2003 under the name myBitTorrent. Ownership of the website changed hands in 2009 and the new website – YourBitTorrent – was launched. The website functions as a torrent tracking website for the P2P BitTorrent network. This means that there are no actual files hosted on the website. Rather the website hosts information about where those files can be found through indexed torrent files. The torrent files can be downloaded and access through a torrent downloading client on the computers of visitors to the site.

YourBitTorrent has automated software that allows it to search the internet to find file information to host. This means that no one controls the information indexed through the YourBitTorrent database. This lack of oversight means that users are able to access music, movies, software, and other items that are copyrighted and are illegal to publicly distribute, even though the copyrighted files themselves are actually hosted on other servers. YourBitTorrent is known to remove illegal trackers at the request of legitimate parties.
