    Using something like torrentflux, you can use a seedbox by installing it onto a webhost, right?

    So say you sign up for a free one? (110mb.com, etc)

    There are a lot of free ones with a lot of bandwith, but will the speeds be really slow?

    Sorry if it's awkwardly phrased. I don't know how else to say this.

    Speeds will be fast but its against the host's TOS (terms of service) and once they find out (they will eventually), you will be terminated.

    It's easier to get an actual seedbox. That'll just make your life a little bit easier.

    Don't rent a web host, rent directly a seedbox.

    slow or fast depends on the bandwidth itself and the traffic, but it'll surely against their term of service, just rent a dedicated and if that's too much for your budget, there are lots of cheap vps around like hivebox, tzulo, etc

    There are web hosts that allow this kind of stuff.

    And this is free I'd rather do this than pay for a seedbox.

    What's bothering me right now is the fact that I can't set up torrentflux. Anyone want to do it for me?

    I would go with the a seedbox to avoid any further hassles or possible termination. Plus web hosts are alot slower. Hope some can help you though.

    Excuse Me?
    Didn't Think So!

    most of the webhosts time out the connections and limit the open ports. Also if they find out, they may send you a big letter, and terminate your services.

    Hm..

    Say I'm able to get web hosting with 75 gigabyte traffic a month that normally costs money but I get it for free (because of a deal I made.. :p) and that the web "hostee" would allow torrents / warez. Because he does
