Help with torrentz, never used them before.

Alright I need to learn spanish and I figure audio tapes and videos are best.
Well that shit is like 300 dollar, so I'd rather get it via a torrent.
Now what do I look for when downloading the proper file and how do I know its safe?
I am on the pirate bay right now, that was the biggest name I knew of to try.
thanks guys.

Supposedly the BEST way to learn any new language, most of the government uses it as their language learning system.

That seems pretty unnecessary since he only needs Spanish, which is 1.27GB

So moonlight, you advise to NOT use the pirate bay?
I will PM you later, I have to get back to work now.
Yes I am only looking for the entire spanish edition, dont need the mega pack, or all the langauges.
Thanks.
But what exactly do you look for when searcing torrentz? How do I know if its the full file and if its virus free?

Look for the most popular item (sort by number of seeds). TPB and some other sites have comments for each torrent so you can suss them out.

Yeah, if there's comments about the torrent check them out, people give warnings to viruses. Also, get an anti-virus software and check everything that get's downloaded.

private sites are way better than tpb. u actually find seeds for everything, and the quality is usually top notch. as far as the mega pack goes, it is the one people usually go for b/c the sound quality is real good on it, and they can just get the rar files for one language, but if u find one that is over a gig just for one language, that should be a good release, just check your comments first.
