Solving a non-problem in the wrong way.

Someone at the Register has a tip to solve the load caused by 10,000 downloads of Fedora Core 6 in 5 hours:


"...Perhaps Red Hat could give the Fedora Project a beefy Unix box, or two."


The BitTorrent downloads are mentioned only in the end as a workaround.


It should be remembered that P2P distribution is one of the inherent advantages of using free software and save costly bandwidth. Let the proprietary software vendors pay their own bandwidth and be tangled in their centralized "portals".


Which, of course, begs to link Jamendo that can offer CD quality music downloads via BW saving P2P..... because they offer only free music.
