Azureus Inc. Moves Toward Commercialization

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the buy-this dept.

SamBob writes "Future releases of the most popular BitTorrent client, Azureus, will come bundled with a 'platform' for media companies to promote their product to Azureus' multi-million users, reports Slyck.com. Azureus Inc., who are the newly formed company behind the Azureus software, plan to generate a profit from the platform in the future, but in the short-term are hoping to help independent film companies find their audience."

    " RIAA hates p2p"

    No, they don't - they hate people illegally infringing on their copyrights via P2P... something that many here simply ignore, because the "RIAA hates P2P" soundbite is so much more pithy and is short enough to be remembered by the short attention span generation.

    But, nice attempt at karma whoring!
