netsez Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 This is probably a dumb question, but here goes. All torrent files are the same, correct? I mean if I d/l a torrent file and load it into utorrent and it never finds anywhere to d/l getting a different torrent file won't help, correct?

funchords Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Not dumb at all.Answer: Usually true, but not necessarily always true. Torrent files can add or change trackers without changing the infohash. The added tracker may have peer information that other trackers do not.It is very rare that this helps, however.
