FireAnt has BitTorrent baked into the Windows version. I actually think we've rather quietly developed one of the best interfaces for BitTorrent yet. Here's why... when you download a video via BitTorrent, it downloads just like any other file. No special knowledge required. Then once its finished

Since videobloggers have high bandwidth requirements and ISPs give discounts for planned large bandwidth consumption, would anyone be interested in a server cooperative where we negotiate as a group for server space and bandwidth? Has this been tried on this group? If every member of this
