So I have seen this term used a little bit when talking about torrenting and had a look into it.
A seedbox is aparently "a private dedicated server used for the uploading and downloading of digital files".
It basically means you can download a torrent to a remote location to re-seed and download to your home PC at your leisure instead of needing to have a torrent client on your PC.
Plus these seedboxes have higher speeds when downloading as well, which seems to make them a useful option.
They are also a good way to build up a ratio on a torrent site if you have problems doing so from your home PC.

So the point of the thread is this:
What are your thoughts on seedboxes?
What ones would you recommend and what ones are rubbish?
Pricing, are there any free ones or cheap ones?
How do you set one up, any good hints?
