Install.
Download .torrent file for the thing you want.
Open .torrent file.
Pick a place to save.
Sit back and watch it download the respective file it belongs to. :p


It's a "swarming" program, in that it helps everyone who is downloading the same file get very high download speeds by making them upload to each other as well so there is more total source bandwidth available for everyone. So the only issue really is finding the source .torrent files that correspond to the thing you're trying to download. http://www.animesuki.com/ and http://anime.mircx.com/ are my favourite places for finding lots of torrents for newer anime videos :p Obviously you'll have to look elsewhere for different types of files though :p
