Watch some TV with TED
Has the television writers' strike left you with hours of spare time and no way to fill it? Well, put down that book and put the running shoes back in the closet, because TED is here to help. TED is the torrent episode downloader, an open source, cross-platform tool that simplifies the tedious process of searching for torrent files.
TED is not a BitTorrent client itself; rather it is a search tool for torrents that can pass along its results to your preferred BitTorrent downloader. TED is geared toward retrieving episodic television shows; it lets you search for specific episodes by season and episode number. The app ships with a database of predefined shows and a manually selected set of feeds from torrent sites that frequently carry such content.
If inclement weather knocks out your local cable TV service right before the season finale of your favorite CSI spin-off, you can fire up TED and have it scour a set of known-good sites, looking for a watchable copy. TED does its searching in the background, and if you repeatedly miss a show, you can even have TED repeat its searches on a regular basis, without intervention from you.
