A PirateBox is our name for a consumer-oriented seedbox. A seedbox is a private dedicated server used for the uploading and downloading of digital files. Our seedboxes make use of the Bittorrent protocol for uploading and downloading data. They are connected to very high speed networks, with a throughput of 2×1000 Mbit/s. Files are uploaded to a seedbox from other BitTorrent users, and from there they can be downloaded at high speeds to your personal computer via the HTTP or FTP protocols. Our seedboxes on high speed networks are typically able to download large files within minutes. A 1 GB file can take less than five minutes to download. That same 1 gigabyte file can be uploaded to other users in the same amount of time, creating a 1:1 or better upload:download ratio for that individual file. The ability of a seedbox to transfer files so quickly is one of the big attractions seedboxes hold within the P2P community, and within the BitTorrent community in particular. Because of the mentioned high speeds, seedboxes tend to be extremely popular inside private torrent trackers, where mantaining a download/upload ratio above 1 is very important. These seedboxes also serve as a kind of proxy, because a user’s actual IP address is not shown, the server’s one being shown instead.
