P2P has a new protocol
What ever happened to the RIAA going after 14-year-old kids sharing music on Limewire or Kazaa? Can you remember when the government would emphasize that file sharing was a negative?
Well you can kiss those ideas goodbye. BitTorrent and Cachelogic (pronounced cash-logic) are teaming up to create a new P2P protocol called CDP, which will allow BitTorrent clients to auto discover better seeds that have been cached on the network, and allow faster downloads of the files.
The Cache Discovery Protocol will only enhance P2P file transfers, and torrent file-sharing will only become more reliable and popular. From an ISP’s perspective, this will place a lot more demand on their upstream capabilities. This will lead to a very interesting next few years
