what you clicked on and downloaded wasn't the actual show. you need to use a bit torrent client ( bittornado, bittorrent, or azureus) to actually download the show. in a nutshell, bittorrents work by sharing info via peer to peer. your acutal download time of the show will vary, depending on your download speed as well as how many other people are trying to download the same thing.

also, once your download actually finished, it will not be in an audio format. it is usually in shn or flac and you have to convert that (or use plugins for your winamp) in order to be able to listen to the show...
