It's not a Russian file exchange system. If you're really jealous...

Download a BitTorrent client, such as μTorrent. Go to a free public torrent search site, such as or The Pirate Bay or KickAss Torrents or YIFY Torrents.

Then knock yourself out. Should take you about 5-10 minutes to get set up. About another 10 minutes or so to figure out what you're doing.

Basically: Users download very small .torrent files, which are hosted on these search sites and in many (many) forums. These little files reference a set of 'tracker' servers. These trackers don't host the target files, instead, they track the users sending and receiving files. The larger files that are sought, whatever they may be, are broken into many small pieces. While downloading needed pieces from one or more other users, the pieces that a user already has are uploaded to others seeking those pieces.
