When I use Bit Comet to download a file, two minutes it still says connecting. What do i do?
It's not strange, depends of the tracker capability, the peers, your connection status & speed atm basically
it takes time for a torrent to connect and gain speed. If you just waited two minutes...be patient, start the download then forget about it for a while.
Does the speed slow down if I'm download multiple files at the same time?
of course. unless you have some fat pipe of a connectionQuote:

torrents are a bit diffrent man. a p2p program downloads a file and keeps on without being disrupted cuz of the hosts it has. in a torrent it affects the speed by the amount of users DL-ing at the same time you are. see a p2p works with DL-ing little peices from one host until they get the entire file. a torrent the entire file is already their, there is only one host and the amount of users DL-ing affects the speed.
so p2p better
some people like p2p cuz they download quicker and you can download much more then just a couple without it takin days to download. i use p2p for quicker results but use torrent trackers to download a rare game or program.
Rare is rare no matter where you go.
The difference between the two is negligable
well i use limewire for a p2p and if i search for psx isos it just gives me the bios and stuff. so i use torrent trackers or an actual site i know for psx isos. i think of a torrents as more of a backup to limewire.
