ImageShack’s torrent download service is still in Beta, but it works just fine. The only thing you need to do is point ImageShack to the torrent file and press start. The download will start immediately, and once it’s finished you can download the files via http onto your computer.
Services like this are not new, but up until now I haven’t seen one that doesn’t charge money. There are some limitations though. Per month you can download a maximum of 15GB to your computer, and the storage on ImageShack’s servers is also limited to 15GB.
The service comes with some great features. It supports selective downloading, which means that you can deselect files from the torrent if you don’t want to download them all. This can be quite useful if you only need one album from a complete discography for example.
ImageShack also provides some basic details about the progress of the downloads. Under the “status” link they list information about the download progress, connected seeds and leechers, share ratio and more.

Are they going to have all types of torrent or only legal torrent files?
ImageShack going the torrent route? I am actually surprised. did they not see what happened to that other torrent site? (forgot the name) that is being sued for millions? This is some interesting news can't wait to see what unfolds with this.

this sounds like a good idea but with the round of lawsuits going around with torrents these days its only a matter of time before they get slapped with one. I do think this service is great and would make downloading torrents a whole lot easier.
I've been using ImageShack for some time now but I never thought that it has this torrent thing feature. Thanks for the information then. At least I 'm now aware.
