BitTorrent ? A file distribution protocol used to distribute large files to multiple points without extraordinary bandwidth demands on the source.
The user has to visit torrent sites such as
http://www.mininova.org
http://www.isohunt.com
http://www.torrentspy.com
http://www.solops2.com
http://www.x-torrent.net

and download the .torrent files to open up in a BitTorrent client (such as BitLord, Azereus, ABC, BitTornado, BitSpirit, TorrentStorm etc.) to download.


Find more information here - http://dessent.net/btfaq/

ps. I don't find Morpheus that amazing, BitTorrent is the best or games, movies software, etc. It's the fastest form of distribution I've ever seen.
