This is just where P2P and satellite data don't mesh. In order for the

the way P2P has to find and connect to peers before it can start
downloading
tiles, it is just too slow for it to work well (and not make everyone
unhappy/ the program useless). The other problem here is that there is
hundreds of gigabytes composing of millions of files, so to be able
to get
full coverage of just one dataset would be an enormous effort.

i working on another peer tp peer project that was used by the nasa
before you might have a look.
