Those are torrents, Annas Archive is typically used for direct downloads.

Thanks. It’s confusing because everyone is talking about torrents. It’s in the title even, but I didn’t read the article.

Well i think you can also torrent off of there too. There are massive backup files on their home page that they are basically begging people to download and seed... So maybe it's that?
