Chunked files in Limewire? I capture basketball games of a sports team, encode them to cd archivable wmv files and share them for fans that may not get coverage in their area.
I currently use eMule for this but many less technical users have problems with setting up their home LANs to avoid what eMule terms a low ID. The max concurrent connections limit imposed by a Windows hotfix did not help either.
I'm thinking the UPnP capabilities of Limewire may go a long way in alleviating the problems.
After a few quick test downloads it appears LW does use multisource downloading but I am unclear as to if when I release a file as the only source, will downloaders begin to share the file as soon as they get what eMule dubbed a chunk or will they have to download the complete file before others can begin to get it from them?
Is that question even understandable as written?
