bittorrent: BitTorrent swarming network file transfer tool

Name:bittorrent Vendor:http://www.karan.org/
Version:4.0.4 License:BitTorrent Open Source License
Release:1.el4.kb URL:http://www.bittorrent.com/
Summary
BitTorrent is a tool for copying files from one machine to another. FTP punishes sites for being popular: Since all uploading is done from one place, a popular site needs big iron and big bandwidth. With BitTorrent, clients automatically mirror files they download, making the publisher's burden almost nothing.
