ABC client is the one I use to download torrents
And mininova.org to get the torrents
Enjoy

Torrents are ad/spyware free

Most films ya d/l via torrents will either be in .avi (which need converting to .mpg to burn to disk) or .bin/.cue which will burn directly without converting.

Use win avi video converter to convert ready to burn, theres loads but this is a piece of piss and quick too.

Loads of info ere : http://www.afterdawn.com/

Dunno the sketch on xbox games cos I've got a ps2!
