Guess it would go here.
Not asking how to do it or anything.
Already know how.

But:
Buddy of mine has a website, hosting, etc. Asked me if I wanted some space, said sure, set me up with some goodies. (MySQL databases, user names, 1.2GB space, etc.)

Want to just do a BitTorrent server. (Legit). Like I had for OCN a while ago before "certain" groups of "members" told me that I couldn't do it anymore. *cough.*


So, he has limited amount of bandwidth a month, etc, but since I'd only be hosting the xxxxx.exe.torrent files, and you just download that and open it and its some 1-10kb in size, that won't do a dent in his bandwidth, will it, since the bandwidth of uploading/downloading would come from the people seeding/leaching the file, right?

I know there will be more bandwidth.

But since the files are stored on Bob and Sues computers, and only the torrent file is stored on his webhosting, it won't be but only the 1-10kb torrent file adding to bandwidth, right? As in, nothing major?
