Please excuse the ignorance, but what are "torrents"

1157487 2010-12-06 03:46:00 Muppet student: Help me, this song won't play
Me: why? did you rip it right? codec? incomplete iTunes d/l?
Muppet: uhhhh... dunno what your on about! (cue smart ass voice) I use torrents!
Me: Ok, lets see it...
(no kidding on extension either) a 200mb awesome_song.mp3.aac.flac.exe was the "non playing song" and in the .nfo (commonly used as a readme file or instructions instead of a system info file as intended) instructions stated: Run the song as admin, disable antivirus. Allow access through firewall.

Obviously Captain Muppet had done all of the above. at that point he started to complain because his computer was slow and said I "sucked at fixing things" I left him to stew in his own ignorant stupidity.

I don't feel sorry for him, the ammount of music people pirate that is cr*p any way is shocking, its a waste of bandwith on the internet, I guess its good, who over made such horrible tunes should be starved of income! I don't care about some guys obsession with "ghetto booty" and how he likes to drone on over 5 mins with some tinny snare about his mothers crack habit.

anyway rant over.

I've seen them with worse filenames than that but never one with instructions on how to infect yourself with it - Classic.
