  client := torrent.NewClient(torrent.ClientConfig{
    TickerDuration: 3 * time.Second,
  })

• Step 2: Add torrent files to client

    err := client.AddTorrent("magnet:?xt=urn:btih:AE204757FE376C70852CD5818B01870F05EE7064")

    }

    eg, _ := errgroup.WithContext(context.Background())
	for _, tt := range client.GetTorrents() {
		eg.Go(func(t torrent.TorrentModel) func() error {
			return func() error {
