| | | well, doesnt matter which way you look at BT, piracy allways come to mind (although thats why it was created in the first place, wehter the author denies it or not). | |

1 edit | All this is good for... "provided ISPs such as Canada's Shaw (see previous discussion here) make exceptions in their packet shaping guidelines to avoid throttling all Bit Torrent traffic."
That's the only reason this is a good move. Now ISPs can't say it's piracy as an excuse to block traffic when you try to use bittorrent.
And maybe it will give hope to other legitimate bittorrent traffic. | |

Alliance, OH | Sigh Companies will never learn that people use P2P because you can trade files free on it, people don't want to use P2P to buy stuff. If I'm going to buy something I expected dedicated bandwidth not P2P. P2P is great for distributing free stuff, but sucks if you are paying to use your bandwidth to send files to other people. | |

Hamilton, ON | Re: Sigh Man are these companies stupid or something they should set up an itunes type store.
Way to go dumbasses now the users are just one click awaya all the need to do is go to a free site to get the exact same file. What a bunch of idiots. Now they are going tolose big $ they should have started an itunes type thing. Now more people are going to learn about BT which is bad and all users have to do is just go to a "free" torrent site with "free torrents". | |

I agree! And its what i've been saying all along! If i'm going to pay $$ I want a super fast deticated server that will let me download the file at 1mb a sec or more.

Pasadena, CA | Re: Sigh 5k/s is not my normal BT speed. what are you doing wrong? i do agree though that if i was paying for it i'd want dedicated speed. | |
|
| | | | | Legit download or not, it didn't matter, I was getting 5KB/s for a while. Then I figured out how to open ports on my firewall. Now I can max out a 5 mbps connection with just a decent torrent or two. Granted the file size is a little different, but for comparison sake, last night I dl'd a 20MB file on BT, in about 1.5 mins, most of that being startup time and making the connections to peers. | |

| | Let me get this straight: I am using my upload bandwidth to help them distribute. If that is the case then the price better be right and the DRM better be non existent. | |

Otherwise I expect dedicated servers pumping out a full 30+Mbps for each user with a discount. | |

| | Where's the Incentive ??? Sorry to blow my own trumpet, but Bittorent will not suceed in the movie distribution space becuse they do not offer seeders a finacial incentive to upload and they still dont have any product avalible until Fall, Bittorents previous Press releases with Warner Brother's stated Summer.
Now if you download the Peer Impact client you will find Warner Bros movies for rent (and "purchase" soon Ive been told ) as well as movies and TV from FOX and NBC/Universal and you recive a system credit for seeding .

| | failure to get it so the 'fee torrents' will have some semblance of speed?
who the frick, cares! Free still beats free, after all both people pay the same FEE for broadband-- so it takes a few extra minutes to load up the ipod/zen vision to the brim with content.
CLUE: people on 768kbit dialup, excuse me, I meant dsl will still be limited by that throughput, it cannot compensate for 30megabit throughput on bittorent no matter how you slice it. | |
