How to Start a Seedbox Business

    I have been researching seedboxes for my own uTorrent use, and have noticed that they are in huge demand.

    So my obvious question is, how do you start a company that offers seedboxes. Do some of the companies offer reseller plans, or do you actually have to own your own machine and internet connection?

    I am still new to seedboxes, so I don't know too much about them, so any guidance can help.

    If you would like to learn the ropes you can contact me about it.

    But basically, Seedboxes use alot of resources so a reseller package would most likely get shut down quickly. It's easiest to buy a dedicated server. Offer alot of options, Custom packages. Good speeds (I hate seeing a thread with a 100mbit line as that is way to slow for 10-20 people to share)

    US servers are sorta a no-no for torrenting because of the MPAA and what not going after torrenters quiet heavy in the last year and most if not 99% of hosting in the US does not allow torrents. So you pretty much need to go offshore.
