Up to you, i've only done standard...i think there's a wider price range with each edition..

Web is cheapest, you can try it, but i like standard because its like a normal comp on windows xp 2003...

They all are more or less... If its only for a seedbox the cheapest one (Web normally) will do fine.

Standard has more server features. If you wish to compare either to Windows XP, there is no difference.

The differences between the web edition and the standard edition are not needed for a seedbox server, Standard edition can be a PDC and controls CAL's which you don't need with a seedbox, the terminal server is identical between the two editions so there is no major difference there, standard edition is simply not needed for a remote access seedbox server.
