Linux based media center os Pc#

I had the entire set of albums downloaded from a friend in maybe an hour or so, I'd guess. I run my AACs lower than 128kbps for the car. The other day I lost a CD (AAC's actually, my car stereo supports it) that had about 1000 minutes of music on it.

Maybe we need a protocol/program that takes BitTorrent and allows a network of users to safely share video/audio in a wide-area RAID configuration.

If I keep maybe 10% of my content on my PC and share it with the 100 out there, I bet we'd have it covered pretty well even considering duplicates for backup. 10mbps is just as fast as I can run to the video store and back (depending on the codec used and other parameters, but its close). So that leaves me with my subjust line: when will we not need a dedicated box anymore?Д«andwidth is almost free, compared to any previous bandwidth before it. One of the providers wants to see it for $19.99 per month (as long as Congress stays out!) I have about a 10mbps pipe at home (beta) that should be available everywhere within a year. I think we could probably extend this to 1000 people and still keep intruders and others out.

I already have a decent little file sharing network between myself and about 100 'close' friends. We continue to try MythTV and various F/OSS programs about 3-4 times a year though.Д«ut I think I might stop, soon. I run XPMCE - yeah, yeah, it works and the WAF is 100%.
