[brlug-general] Cox and P2P

[willhill]

There's a new Star Wars spoof movie out and it's makers are giving away the 
DVD via bittorrent.  

http://www.backyardproductions.co.uk/index.html
and
http://www.backyardproductions.co.uk/tenclofilm.torrent

This is the first time in a while I've used bittorrent and the damage done by 
Cox to the protocol is apparent.  My upload, of course, is pegged at 55 KB/s 
but my download is much slower than I'm used to.

Hopefully, a big crowd of downloaders will help.
