    A torrent is a "hash mark," an algorithm, or simply put a small file that identifies the file you want to download. It is the identify of one download, and one download only. Just like your name is "saurav2u" on Zero Paid. That tells me where to look- Zero Paid, and who to look for "saurav2u." It is just the descriptor of the file or files you want to download.

    Now seeders are the people that have the file or files you want to download. You want to get the file from them, and each of them give you a part of the file.

    Peers are the other people trying to get the same file you are trying to get. Some have more some have less of it, so you also trade back and forth with peers.

    RSS is a feed of news, information, or files. When you use a torrent to download, you are pulling in files and information. When you sign up for RSS other people are pushing information or files to you.

    Hope this helps.
