I think this is such a GREAT idea EDGE!

Unfortunately I require a step by step tutorial with torrents as I have never delved in. No host, no clue...

Sort of like, how do I convert .rar to playable files, or, what the hell is .shn?, or how can I wipe myself when the shelves have been cleaned out and all the trees are bare?

I Should really get on the bandwagon...

You're THE man EDGE!
 
one problem though is keeping it seeded. that's the advantage of the cyberlocker sites in that you can find an old link from years ago that will still work.

If you have a windows machine you might have WinRar already. Right click on the .rar file and see if you have options available like "Extract files...", or "Extract here", etc. If not you can download 7-zip (which might be the better option anyway) and do the same thing. I like to download the .rar file into a new folder and use the "Extract here" option.

.shn (shorten) is an older lossless packing tool. Shn kind of fell by the wayside with Flac becoming more popular. If I remember correctly you can download Traders Little Helper which will unpack shn as well as other formats.

Thank you for trying to be helpful, I really hope it was to others.

I was trying to draw a parallel between those who struggle with the issues you have addressed and what I need assistance with.

Torrenting. Which is the subject of this thread.
