Default Hey computer dorks, what's a torrent?

So my friend told me to download bitcomet and I did.
Then I go to piratebay.org and download some music.

Now....... The ---- I downloaded shows up on the bitcomet page thingy, but I can't figure out how to play the ----. My itunes is fucked and won't open, and no matter how many times I try to re-download it, it won't work. What am I supposed to do to listen to the insane clown posse, damn it?

The only related thing I see in my documents is itunes, which I try to open, it sends me an error message and shuts down everything (that "send report/don't send report") bullshit one.

I made a new folder on the desktop for all this mad tyte music I'm supposed to be downloading, so I can drag it into that folder, but it's as good as nothing until I figure out how to play it. Windows media player doesn't recoqnize the file.

are they .rar files? if so you need to extract them. .iso's are cd images.
