        Minuses of torrents:
        There is no option to preview the file before downloading. You can see what the file contains, but you cannot see the quality. The only way to check the quality is to trust the reviews of other people on the Internet.
        You are exposing your IP address to many people. If you want to protect your privacy, you should use a VPN.
        But if you choose to torrent on The Pirate Bay, there are no disadvantages.

        Now let's move on to the nicer stuff.
        Pros of torrent:
        You can easily find and download torrent files. There are many online sources and sites that provide a huge library of quality torrent content.
        Even if you have a slow connection, you can still download a torrent file very quickly compared to traditional download methods.

          no queues for downloads on torrents
          High speed (the more people uploading, the higher the speed, basically only your Internet connection limits the speed)
          You can upload and download not only files but also folders
          resume downloads (you can resume at any time)
