"BitLet, whose client-free torrent downloader we first mentioned on DownloadSquad two years ago, have been hard at work on a new project. Their torrent-powered streaming video service is now available for a public preview."

"Tribler, on the other hand, is a desktop application that allows you to search for and stream just about any format your computer is capable of playing. It's available for Windows, Mac, and Linux - a Ubuntu .deb is provided as is the source code."

Using BitTorrent to Retrieve Objects Stored in Amazon S3 - http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/AmazonS...
Todd Harris and Slade Publishing liked this
"Any object in Amazon S3 that can be read anonymously can also be downloaded via BitTorrent. Simply add a "?torrent" query string parameter at the end of the REST GET request for the object."
- Mike Chelen
Is that a security risk or a feature? :)
- Owen Greaves
Since the files are already public, it should be expected that people would download them. S3 bandwidth isn't free, so letting others help with distribution seems in the interest of the content author :)
- Mike Chelen
with a little more info about how the .torrent information is generated, could make a fantastic basis for file distribution
- Mike Chelen
This is a great feature of S3. Perl gurus might also want to see: http://search.cpan.org/~qantin... or http://code.google.com/p...

such a lifesaver, even though standalone editors are more powerful, the convenience of a website is often more important

"This program is designed to speed up the viewing of streaming video, downloading software (with or without the BitTorrent protocol) and playing online video games. It does so by distributing the end users' downloads between each other. In this way, the developers intend that content providers should take less load on their servers so the end users can receive the content faster."
