With BitTorrent, there are no limits to the number of files you can download, or the amount of data you can move. Which means your downloads move a lot faster. Since the files are broken down into tiny bites, you use less bandwidth.
The files are then downloaded, piece by piece, from one or many different sources. Our technology breaks big files down into small pieces. Its advantage over plain HTTP is that when multiple downloads of the same file happen concurrently, the downloaders upload to each other, making it possible for the file source to support very large numbers of downloaders with only a modest increase in its load. It identifies content by URL and is designed to integrate seamlessly with the web. BitTorrent is a protocol for distributing files.
