Streaming a movie torrent means that you’re able to watch it before the whole file has been downloaded. If you prefer to get your movies, TV shows, or other videos through torrent websites, a dedicated tool that supports streaming is what you want.

This is a great way to watch movie torrents if you want to avoid having to wait potentially hours for the movie to fully download. For example, maybe you have a really slow internet connection, or the movie is just so good that you can’t wait to watch it. No matter what your reason is, a streaming torrent site or program can do this for you.

    Important Facts About Movie Torrents

    It’s important to be aware of what a movie torrent is. Most torrent sites offer movies that are not legal to stream or download, and most countries have rules in place that restrict people from getting those movies (even though it’s really easy to do so).

    Before choosing a movie or TV show to use with one of these torrent streaming tools, do some research to make sure that it’s totally and completely free and legal. If the movie is in the public domain or a friend is sharing a home video with you via a torrent, there’s no need to worry about the legal side of things. However, if the movie is still in theaters or has not been deemed public domain content, you should avoid it.

    We do not support downloading or streaming movies illegally. There are plenty of completely free, public domain movies on torrent sites and other places (such as Archive.org) that are 100% free to watch.

    Tip: If you’re looking for movie streaming sites that are legal without question, we have a list of those here.

    Torrent Clients For Streaming Movies

    Below is our list of the absolute best ways to watch movie torrents without downloading them. Some methods involve a web service that stores the movie on a server before delivering it to you through your browser, and others are desktop programs that let you watch while the movie is downloading.

    WebTorrent Desktop

    WebTorrent Desktop is a program you install to your computer. It works on Windows, Linux, and Mac devices and is super easy to use.

    You can drag a torrent file into the program or paste a magnet link, and moments later, a play button will appear that lets you stream the movie torrent. There’s also a Chromecast button if you want to watch the movie on your TV.

    This torrent client for movies also lets you make your own torrents, which is useful if you want to share a home video with family or friends. Keyboard shortcuts are included to make controlling playback easy, and you can use SRT and VTT subtitle files.

    Webtor.io

    Webtor.io is another online torrent client that lets you stream movies for free without a user account. Just enter the torrent URL, upload a torrent file, or paste the magnet link into the box on the home page and wait for the site to gather up all the seeders. Moments later, you’ll be able to play the movie torrent in your browser and even stream to a Chromecast.

    Something neat about Webtor.io is that you can share the movie stream with others, too, so that they can watch it as well without having to worry about finding the original torrent file.

    You can use this torrent client from their website or via the Webtor.io Chrome extension.

    Seedr

    Seedr makes streaming movie torrents really easy. After you make an account, you get 2 GB of free storage to keep your files (you can delete when finished to make room for more). From my experience, Seedr is one of the fastest ways to get movie torrents because nearly every file I’ve ever used with it becomes available in minutes.

    You can’t watch the movie until the full file has been saved to your account, but when it’s finished, you don’t have to download it to your computer to watch the video. Just stream it right there on Seedr’s website.

    Chromecast is supported and you can organize your files into folders.

    Bitport.io

    The Bitport.io online torrent client is a bit different than some of these other ones because you do have to wait for the movie to finish downloading before you can watch it (just like with Seedr).

    Once the torrent has been fully loaded in your account, you can stream the movie from Bitport.io.

    Note: Free users are limited to 1 GB of space and can download to their account one torrent per day. There are payment options if you want those restrictions lifted.

    ROX Player

    ROX Player is a desktop-based torrent client. After you install it, use the File menu to load a torrent file/URL or magnet link. The program will buffer the video and then start streaming it immediately.

    Since this movie torrent streamer is a full-fledged program, it offers features not found in the online clients listed above. You can adjust the video brightness, saturation, contrast, and other levels, as well as change the aspect ratio, import subtitles, define the speaker setup, adjust the stream speed limit, associate it with torrent files, and more.

    You can use ROX Player in Windows 10 down through Windows XP.
