BitTorrent Guide
An anonymous reader writes "BitTorrent is the new latest/greatest P2P app to come and one of the MP3 rags has published a guide to it. Shareaza has already started to implement support for it, though support is in the early stages. The ruling is blazing fast downloads, but the difficulty of finding .tor files and other issues shows it is still a work in progress with strong niche potential. Information to host files on BT can be found here." It remains to be seen if Bit Torrent can outlive P2Ps bad rep since it is a really useful application.

How small a thought it takes to fill a whole life
Does slashdot have a policy about posting links to warez/pr0n/illegal content/etc sites?
Yes! We never link to them until after all the editors have verified the site is currently up, and downloaded all the goodies.

You're right!!! It's just a matter of time until they shut us down! Get all the MP3's you can before Metallica and the RIAA stop the Internet!
The first rule of BitTorrent, is that you don't talk about BitTorrent. Now all the torrent sites posted here are slashdotted, and the rest are being DDoS'd. The key to a successfull filesharing network is that it's not publicized.
