Why P2P Streaming Is Going To Be The Next Best Thing | tinyCrunch

by Jason Wilk on September 22, 2008

  • Music and Movie streaming is supposedly about to break out.
  • Thepiratecity.org, even though they claim no affiliation with The Pirate Bay (yeah right) is said to be lanching the P2P stream service in the next couple weeks.
  • The site is currently down, likely due to a leak and then a massive amount of traffic to a lone server the developers are working with.
  • P2P streaming would be devastating for the entertainment industry, especially the new MySpace Music ad-supported music streaming coming soon. (who wants that?)
  • But this has to be the next step in Piracy, due to regulations popping up about broadband download caps put on users that download a lot of P2P content.
  • With streaming, there is no risk of going over the cap and everyone besides the content creators are going to be happy.
