Seedr.cc is a cloud-based torrent downloader / “torrent in the cloud” service: you supply a torrent file or magnet link, Seedr’s servers fetch it, then you can download or stream the file from their cloud storage.
-
The idea is to offload the torrenting activity from your device/ISP to their servers, which can mitigate issues like ISP throttling, poor seeding, or firewall / port blocking.
-
It also offers streaming of media files directly from the cloud, so you may not need to download fully to your device to view content.
Strengths
-
Convenience & ease of use
Many users praise how simple it is: paste magnet/torrent, wait, and then download or stream.The interface is reportedly clean and works well across browsers/devices. -
Speed (in favorable cases)
Because Seedr uses its own fast servers, torrents (especially well-seeded ones) can download quickly, sometimes faster than what you’d achieve on your own network.
Some claim the service can handle torrents with very few seeders, because their servers help with initial seeding. -
Privacy / IP hiding (partial)
By having torrents fetched by Seedr’s servers, your personal IP isn’t exposed to the swarm (peers). This can help with some privacy concerns or ISP snooping. -
Free tier / trial ability
Seedr gives a limited free tier (e.g. ~2 GB) to try out basic functionality.
Users can sometimes increase free storage by referrals, social sharing, etc
