ignace Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 They take the .torrent files and download them from their servers, in a queue table, search for PHP torrent download. The place where they store the downloaded files is shown to the user along with the status of the download.

kicken Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 They probably have some kind of torrent downloading application running which they can programatically add torrents to, such as the transmission-cli torrent app. Their PHP scripts would just take the .torrent file and queue it up into transmission by running the appropiate command using exec. They could track the status of the download by issuing other status/information commands and parsing their outputs.
