Bittorent Used

[4play]

prostoalex writes "CacheLogic attempted to measure the peer-to-peer network traffic by installing their network monitoring tools in data centers of large ISPs. The results are in, and Bram Cohen's BitTorrent overtook Kazaa's FastTrack network. BitTorrent traffic amounted to 53% of all peer-to-peer traffic, according to CacheLogic. It's worth noting, though, that Kazaa traffic is highly seasonal, as a lot of high-schoolers and college students are simply on vacation this time of year."

not really surprising considering the falling number on kazaa.

looks like some little girl on her playstation.

I'm surprised they don't do filesharing during their vacation, if they have computers at home.

it means that suprnova is a target for copyright enforcment. most notably the MPAA (motion picture assosciation of america) is using public trackers (such as suprnova) and logging the IP&#39;s of those transfering copyrighted movies.

private trackers are the way to go :)
