You might want to include a link to some places where you can decode the torrent files to wav/mp3s. Here's a link to the program I use:

You still require a torrent client. The torrent file itself is the same. There are a number of Mac torrent programs. I know offhand of Tomato and my personal favorite, uTorrent, is coming to the Mac soon.

transmission is a mac native utorrent clone, but azureus is the best as nitro and cold have said

I tired using Tomato and I couldnt get it to work on my Mac. I tried downloading this one show and it would say it was starting downloading but then it would never go anywhere. I let it try and download all night but it never made any progress
