sideload
|
|
|
|
Originating from the i-drive company in the late 1990s, to sideload is to
|
|
obtain files from another system without downloading them in the conventional
|
|
manner. The term implies a lateral, non-hierarchical relation between the
|
|
sending and receiving system. So you might download music from an illicit
|
|
file sharing site and then sideload it to your phone via a USB cable or over
|
|
the local wifi network.
