How to Install Flixtor on Roku

What is Flixtor?

Flixtor is a P2P application that uses the BitTorrent protocol. Flixtor works similar to other torrent downloading programs where it first downloads a video file from different users who have this file and then reassembles all of these parts into a single file. This makes it possible to download videos that are too large to fit into one download, like over 2 hours long movies or several gigabyte-sized TV series.
