The P2P-Next project is not open source just a remote port to the API using there servers which will align your content to there business model.

Come on you did not think they would allow you to have access to there source code P2P overlay network did you?…After all the P2P project is backed by media barons.

As for the set-top-box, Thanks Pioneer the boy’s in China will reverse engineer the components for anti-DRPHLEM!

Everything you can find on the internet is already in the public domain, so go get it for free!

Only a wanker or maybe a rich wanker would consider paying for stuff before you’ve even seen it!

Most of what I download is crap, I only find that out AFTER I downloaded it, If I’d paid for it I would be feeling totally ripped off!

It’s really ironic that the BBC would consider using OUR! technology, no doubt for financial gain of their own.

The internet is already a wash with free content that you can download anonymously. The good thing about this is that it is hardware based.

I however prefer fast private downloads using anonymous BT technology like Ning.

I agree with post 5.. IF this every takes off (it can’t in alot of countrys, like the UK, our net speeds are slooow compared to most other contrys..), it wil soon claimed that “evil pirates and hackers” are useing it for speading USEFUL files (ie. DRM free).

innovations are always good. and its open source project, so it can be used out of that box, i guess.

Nice tech, cheers Pioneer.

Just give us the hardware and we’ll take it from there thanks. No need to spend too much time on the DRM – we’ll have it removed within weeks so that the box will actually be useful.

Utter garbage. BitTorrent is not a streaming protocol even with the piece picker hacked. This product will fail.

If you want to replace your cable box then use a protocol built for streaming which carries a QoS payload.
