BitTorrent is a tool for distributing files. 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.
