Description-en: access torrent files as a filesystem
btfs allows you to mount .torrent or magnet links
as local directories using fuse.
.
Tools like cp, cat and ls would work the same as
on a normal filesystem. You can also play videos
using normal video software and only the sections
that you stream will be transferred.
