Yeah, thanks for all the replies. Given what you're saying, it doesn't look the it is the torrents. I'm using transmission for Mac. I use a filter list, which might be a problem, or the client could be having some issues. I'll try a different client and see if I get different results. If it's not the client, then maybe it's a problem with my network configuration, though torrents usually work.
O, I tried using a different client and there were lots of seeders. That was clearly the issue. Thank you so much for responding to my question so quickly. I disabled the filter list on Transmission, but still nothing. I prefer that to uTorrent, which I downloaded, but that doesn't seem to be working for anything. Any ideas why that client might not be working? In any case, the immediate issue is resolved and now I get to listen to some great tunes. Thanks again.
