BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer file sharing/distribution protocol designed
for transferring files from multiple locations. Because of the nature
of this protocol, large files can be handled more efficiently than the
typical client/server method.
Serving large files creates problems of scaling, flash crowds, and
reliability. The key to cheap file distribution is to tap the unutilized
upload capacity of your customers. Their contribution grows at the same
rate as their demand, creating limitless scalability for a fixed cost.
By using software that was built by the same team that invented BitTorrent, you are guaranteed access to the latest, most efficient methods of getting downloads to your desktop.

The protocol was designed in April 2001, implemented and first
released 2 July 2001 by programmer Bram Cohen, and is now maintained by
BitTorrent, Inc.
BitTorrent identifies content by URL and is designed to integrate
seamlessly with the Web. 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.
