04/24 BitTorrent is a tool for distributing files. It's extremely easy to use
- downloads are started by clicking on hyperlinks. Whenever more than
one person is downloading at once they send pieces of the file(s) to
each other, thus relieving the central server's bandwidth burden. Even
with many simultaneous downloads, the upload burden on the central
server remains quite small, since each new downloader introduces new
upload capacity.
