    If only he distributed his server load like a P2P network.

    Has anyone got a link for a torrent of the article? ;-)

    So BitTorrent is just about spreading the distribution load across multiple peers and can't speed up my physical connection to the internet.

    That's why I click on every banner I see that says "click here to increase your download speed". I think of them as the little speed boost arrows you could drive over in Excitebike.
