How to Use a Seedbox
Most seedboxes come preconfigured with torrent clients for easy setup. Once files are downloaded to the seedbox, you can transfer them to your computer via FTP, HTTP, or other protocols. Many also support media streaming through Plex.
While seedboxes aren’t necessary for everyone, they can be very useful for heavy torrent users or those looking to build ratio on private trackers. Consider your needs and budget when selecting a provider.
