The BTSharp Team doesn't want you to have to worry about how your data gets from here to there, as long as it does quickly and easily.

Method: We host a tracker, so you don't have to

If you don't want to host your own tracker, we host a tracker that you can tell your client to use.

Now, for the best part.  If you don't enter in a tracker url as an argument to BTClient.Share(), then the BTClient will use our tracker by default! Smile

Conclusion: Pass a tracker url into the Share() function if you want to use a private tracker. Otherwise, don't worry about it!  We've got ya covered.

For some applications, protocols and transfer mechanisms are just details.  If you're a developer that wants your data transfers to "just work", then the BTSharp default tracker is for you.

When you call BTClient.Share(string filename, string contentProviderId), the library uses the default tracker that we host so that you don't have to host your own tracker.
