BitTorrent

BitTorrent is a peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing protocol and application that enables users to distribute data and electronic files over the Internet in a decentralized manner. It is commonly used for downloading large files, such as movies, music, and software applications. The system works by breaking down the files into smaller pieces, which can be downloaded concurrently from multiple locations, reducing the server and network impact of distributing large files.
