03/25/2005 09:08 PMBitTorrent is a protocol designed for transferring files. It is
peer-to-peer in nature, as users connect to each other directly to
send and receive portions of the file. However, there is a central
server (called a tracker) which coordinates the action of all such
peers. The tracker only manages connections, it does not have any
knowledge of the contents of the files being distributed, and
therefore a large number of users can be supported with relatively
limited tracker bandwidth. [Freeware 3.6 MB]
BitTorrent Will Not Go Away
BitTorrent Will Not Go Away
03/17/2005 03:08 AMThere was an article I read in
Yahoo News from the Washington Post on
BitTorrents. It explains that too many legit uses exist for BitTorrent
for the service to be shut down. The MPAA is admitting that there are
good and bad uses for BitTorrent and that they will only go after
people that are helping users to download illegal movies. It's good to
see a mianstream media outlet like the Washington Post understand the
real concept and design behind BitTorrents.
This represents a shift from previous practices, in which the MPAA,
the Recording Industry Association of America (news - web sites) and
other groups have tried to have entire products -- for example, the
first Diamond Rio MP3 player or the networked ReplayTV (news - web
sites) video recorder -- taken off the market.One reason for this
change of heart may be that in BitTorrent, unlike many other
file-sharing programs, legitimate use doesn't amount to a token
minority. It's central to this program's existence.
Developers of versions of the Linux (news - web sites) operating
system were some of the first to jump on BitTorrent as a way to ship
out vast amounts of data. A Linux distribution can easily span four
CD-ROMs; instead, companies such as Red Hat offer BitTorrent downloads
of their work.

1. download BIT TORRENT 3.4.2.exe (Link) and

2. download Fahrenheit.911.CAM-POT(1).torrent (Li

3. open it with BitTorrent
4. start

5. download "wrar330d.exe" (Link) open it
6. unpack the file
"pot.911a.rar" in the CD1 file (as well as the "pot.911b.rar" in the
CD2 file - this is why there are 36 parts on each desk. In order to
assemble it, opening the file will automatically identify all the
segments and put them together) this will create a "pot.911a" (and a
"pot.911b") file
7. download "vlc-0.7.2-win32.exe" (Link)

Professional BitTorrent?
Professional BitTorrent?
08/31/2004 04:28 AMA startup, Atzio, is now claiming that they have the
first peer-to-peer internet platform for
television, apparently ignoring something like BitTorrent. Of
course, the technology can basically be described as... BitTorrent
with copy protection (how innovative). Plus, they only allow a select
group of clients to seed material on the network, making it less
likely that people will bother to download the software to make it
possible for all this P2P television distribution. The company's own
website, amusingly,
claims it's having trouble handling all the traffic from the news of
their launch -- which might raise some concerns from a company telling
the entertainment industry they can handle the distribution of large
files in great demand. Still, you have to wonder how effective this
sort of solution is. The whole point of their system is you want more
people getting and redistributing the content, but then they throw in
this copy protection, which is almost laughable considering the system
doesn't work if people aren't copying from you while you're copying
from others. Besides, if you're a content producer, why bother paying
this startup (and I assume they want money) to put your content on
their network, when it's easier to just create a torrent, and get it
out there -- where a lot more people already have BitTorrent clients.

had, say, a video of your band performing its hit "Download Me, Baby,
and Then Why Doncha Set Me Free?" that you wanted to sell, you'd
upload it to Prodigem Marketplace and slap a price on it. Prodigem
takes 10% plus the PayPal fee and passes the rest on to you. It's
DRM-free once you've downloaded it: It's just a file that you can
redistribute as you see fit. And they're contemplating an interesting

03/08/2004 11:26 PMDear Bay Area friends: I am

No - this isn't a Dave Winer lovefest - but I DID catch something
in the subtext which said:
PS: Murphy-willing Andrew Grumet will
have something exciting to announce that connects RSS with another
nominee, in the same category: BitTorrent. We're very excited about
combining syndication with BMO's. It would be cool to make the
announcement on the day of the award ceremony, March 15.
PPS: BMO stands for Big Media
Object.
Yaozah! That's
important.
Getting BitTorrent connected to
RSS matters. The RSS Enclosures idea never really took off (even
with Adam Curry's support) - but having RSS baked into BitTorrent
could really get this thing going!

MLDonkey and BitTorrent
MLDonkey and BitTorrent
05/09/2004 06:27 PM
I was looking through MLDonkey wiki when
I ran into this technical yet compact explanation of how BitTorrent protocol
works. I already know how BT works but I thought my fellow
geeks might find
this useful since the diagrams at the official BT site aren't that
useful:
It [BitTorrent] divides shared data (a single file or a directory)
into pieces, typically
of 256 KiB. A SHA-1 checksum is computed for each piece, and used
to check the piece
has been correctly downloaded. The checksums are stored in a
.torrent file, along
with filenames. The .torrent file also nominates a tracker, a Web
resource that introduces
peers to each other. Peers contact each other, learn what pieces
they have available,
request the rarest (least commonly seen) pieces first, and send
requested pieces.
Just in case you are wondering, MLDonkey is a universal client of
sort for many
P2P networks including FastTrack, eDonkey2000, Gnutella, and
Direct Connect.
It supports BitTorrent too but then BitTorrent is not really a
network. While
MLDonkey is open source, it's written in Ocaml which is powerful
but non-mainstream.

01/08/2004 08:18 PM...there's always a 'but' isn't there?
I had attempted to use BitTorrent a couple of times before, but
never spent more than a few minutes with it, not enough to understand
what was going on. Yesterday night though, I gave it a little more
time and some tips from Russ and Matt I could get it going. I had to
adjust some settings, such as the bandwidth allocated for uploads,
which defaulted at 12 KB/sec and immediately started to suck up my
entire upload capability (I set it at 7 KB/sec). I chose a couple of
files (three actually) and let it download overnight. This morning,
things were well on their way, two files done, the remaining one
halfway through. But then it hit me: my transfers are limited!
I have a 4GB transfer limit (as it's common here in
Ireland) on my DSL connection. So now I have downloaded, in one
day, over 1.5 GB of data, and still have 1 GB to go. Then, there's the
uploaded data, which also counts. EEk! By the time the second transfer
is finished I will have spent over 75% of my monthly bandwidth
allotment. With 60% of the month still to go!
Damn. I want to go back to my good old days of DSL in the Bay Area,
where I had a symmetric 768 KB/sec DSL connection, with no transfer
limits, at $40 a month. Okay, that's not realistic. :) But on the
other hand, until transfer limits are removed (or at least raised)
here, I won't be able to do much with BitTorrent. Too bad.
And, btw, this clearly has to have an impact on broadband usage.
Forget about BitTorrent specifically, other types of media transfers
are also quite heavy, and having that sword hanging over your neck
(the sword being whatever they charge per megabyte after you cross the
transfer limit) users will be more likely to treat broadband as a kind
of always-on modem, rather than as true broadband. Ireland is great,
for technology in particular, but it definitely needs some serious
improvements to both infrastructure and access to that infrastructure
(see my post on mobile handset costs yesterday) to be truly
competitive. There's a qualitative jump (both on the supplier and the
consumer side of a market) that happens when connectivity is
pervasive, always-on, fast, and relatively inexpensive, and Ireland
isn't there yet. Here's hoping we won't have to wait much longer.
