1I have no idea if you want to decode the torrent file itself, decode the contents of the torrent file, or download the files referenced by the torrent file. Explain. – Dietrich Epp Oct 07 '11 at 04:53

There are too many torrent downloaders. What's wrong with them? – JBernardo Oct 07 '11 at 04:55

You can use a python client.
The last version of the original Bittorrent client is available via Sourceforge:

There is also Bittornado as a pure python client:
