Sure when we talk about BitTorrent We all know what type of program we are on, one that helps us enormously when it comes to sharing and downloading files, although in many cases these are unfortunately protected by copyright, which makes their distribution illegal. Among all the programs that allow us to carry out this type of task, without a doubt, BitTorrent is one of the most famous and used by practically the entire community.
With this in mind, I have to admit that I was particularly struck by the fact that those responsible for its development have announced the launch of an application for Android devices that would allow you to watch videos online without having to download them. We talk about BitTorrent Live, which is already available on Google Play, although with significant limitations since it only works on a few devices at the moment.
BitTorrent Live, an Android app to watch streaming videos.
To work, like the torrent client, it connects through P2P This guarantees that the greater the number of users, the faster and smoother the network will go and the better the performance and display of the video. We have to take special care with its operation at this point, since it is very different from what we are used to. In this type of model, users are the ones who share data between their networks to improve the image.
At the moment, according to the experiences of everyone who has already tried BitTorrent Live, apparently everyone content is in English and the offer is not too wide although, as you might expect, this could change as new users start to appear.
