A downloads is the number of how many times the torrent has been downloaded according to its tracker record
A seeder is a peer that has a complete copy of the torrent and still offers it for upload. The more seeders there are, the better the chances are for completion of the file
A leech is usually a peer who has a negative effect on the swarm by having a very poor share ratio - in other words, downloading much more than they upload. Most leeches are users on asymmetric internet connections who do not leave their BitTorrent client open to seed the file after their download has completed. However, some leeches intentionally avoid uploading by using modified clients or excessively limiting their upload speed. The term leech, however, can be used simply to describe a peer - or any client that does not have 100% of the data
A peer is one instance of a BitTorrent client running on a computer on the Internet that other clients connect to and transfer data. Usually a peer does not have the complete file, but only parts of it, however, peer can be used to refer to any participant in the swarm (in this case, also known as a client). Note that the colloquial definition of peer is anybody, leech or seed, involved in a torrent
A health (or avaiability) the number of full copies of the file available to the client. Each seeder adds 1.0 to this number, as they have one complete copy of the file. A connected peer with a fraction of the file available adds that fraction to the availability, if no other peer has this part of the file. (ie. a peer with 65.3% of the file downloaded increases the availability by 0.653, when two peers who both have the same 50% of the file downloaded and there is one seeder the availability is 1.5)

Recorded at Avatar Studios, New York, New York on February 1 & March 18, 1999.
Active in both classical and jazz circles, bassist Ron Carter has also shown a preference for Brazilian music throughout his career. He's returned to Brazil each January for the past six years to perform with his ensemble and to learn from local artists. Carter, 62, and one of the most recorded jazz players of all time, wrote most of the pieces for this latest album with care taken to preserve authentic stylistic concepts. Houston Person's lyrical lead, Bill Frisell's unique, interwoven guitar voice, Stephen Scott's percussive piano fills and Carter's solid rhythm section characterize the session as authentic Brazilian music with a jazz slant.
Carter's Γ??Por-Do-SolΓ?? parades down the street with a light bouncy samba texture while Γ??SaudadeΓ?? sweeps around the ballroom in waltz time. Γ??Manha de Carnaval,Γ?? featuring Person's caressing tenor, pours out gracefully with a lyrical manner and heartfelt expression. A bossa arrangement of Γ??Goin' HomeΓ?? and a laid-back arrangement of Carter's bluesy Γ??1:17 SpecialΓ?? keep the pace going strong. Bassist Carter takes the lead on Γ??Samba de OrfeuΓ?? and expresses the same deep love for a melody that Person and Frisell display throughout the program. Highly recommended, Ron Carter's Orfeu combines mainstream jazz with lyrical Brazilian charm for an outstanding session. - Jim Santella (AllAboutJazz.com)
