+1 for web seeds. You can also avoid having a tracker at all if you use PEX and DHT-only magnet links. Tangent: I ran into a strange bug with web seeds using Transmission on Debian Wheezy the other day: it does not respect the configured speed limit for web seed sources, owing to a discrepancy in the way libcurl vs libtransmission downloads are handled. It's fixed now but not in Wheezy.
