Microsoft go P2P?

have read reports that the Research team at Microsoft's computer science lab in Cambridge have developed a P2P filesharing system that the research team say overcomes the scheduling problems associated with existing distribution protocols such as Bit Torrent.

The research team also have claimed that download times are between 20-30% faster, using their network and coding approach, than say on systems that only code at the server, and they also claim that their P2P software is between 200 and 300% faster than distributing un-encoded information.

Of course Microsoft is very keen to stress that this technology should be used for distributing legitimate content. HA HA Microsoft.... (What they really mean is once you have bought it and we have the money in our big piggy bank we don't care what you do)

Not sure i agree with this but it would be very IRONIC if everyone used Microsofts P2P software to download bootleg copies of their window products,,,

If you can't beat tem join them eh? Microsoft...
