Re: BitTorrent and streaming media

Jeeze, I wish I had read this thread before I posted my message, it 
totaly goes right into what I wanted to know.  Thanks guys. :)

Anyway, I'm interested in streaming MP3Pro accross P2P streaming 
networks.  I really like BT, so I was hoping to find a BT 
implementation of what I need.  I'll look into those other streaming 
P2Ps mentioned previously, but I don't have high hopes for them 
working out.  BT is already established and working great, but I 
know nothing about those other P2Ps.

Well, thanks a bunch.

Krepta.
