Boxopus is a new internet service using which a torrent can be directly put into your Dropbox account using the Dropbox API and thus download the content directly into your Dropbox storage space. The process is completely anonymous and you do not even need a torrent client such as BitTorrent. It’s also completely safe, as Boxopus uses the Dropbox API to transfer the torrent files and will not have access to the other contents in your Dropbox account.
Bookshops has now joined the list alternate ways to get torrent files. The other popular one is magnet links. Torrent hosting sites even have the option to add Boxopus as a torrent download option. Sites such as TorrentReactor, Fulldls.com, Vertor.com, and Torrentzap.com have already added the option. Others are expected to follow soon.
Boxopus intends to keep the service free and unlimited till the beta period. After the beta period however, free usage will be limited by restrictions.
Dropbox is fast becoming a popular cloud service due to the many useful features it provides such as easy file transfers and sharing of links and the compatibility with many apps to transfer data into the Dropbox account. Dropbox has as of yet not commented on the Boxopus service.
