Anyone thought of bittorrent

Anyone with a decent collection of Hip concerts ever thought about doing a Bittorrent download? This is a relatively new program that lets everyone downloading the concert share some of the burden of the d/l so that the server is not the only one using bandwidth. It splits the files up as you download, and then allows other downloaders to get file bits from various places. I think we could get some more music out there if we did this. I'd start it but I don't have any concerts yet. Anyone interested can check out http://smiler.myip.org/BT/BTFAQ.htm for more info on Bittorrent, there is also a link to a GUI for generating the download files at http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/completedir.exe
