One more thing to keep in mind. Once you manage to figure it out and get started with torrenting, you need to leave uTorrent (or other torrent client) open on your computer with the torrent uploading (or available to upload), even after you have finished downloading the torrent. If you go ahead and burn a disk and delete the files right away it destroys your "share ratio" (meaning the amount you've uploaded compared to the amount you've downloaded). Many torrent sites are very touchy about it if your share ratio is low. (I had this experience with another site while I was learning the process.) So, once you've succeeded in downloading a torrent, leave it open on your computer until your share ratio is at least 1.
I use a bittorrent site called Tapecity, and it has a good FAQ that explains the process better than some other sites I've seen.
