What happens after that?

It depends on plugin and it depends on mp3 player. Sometimes you can tag lyrics and keep it organized so that it is always displayed when you play your tune. Other times, lyrics disappear once song is over and you have to start all over again. Another variable is ability to print out lyrics for your personal use.

This also depends on type of mp3 player that you are using type of plugin whether it’s freeware or a professional application.

In either case, software should identity source of imported lyrics and you can go to site and get a copy for yourself.

3. A user will see this file, take file and look into it, to make sure that they are getting right thing and then notify server that they are ready to do a download.

4. The server then checks for all users that have that full file and will swap out bits and pieces until you get your entire download.

It’s almost like server chops all files into mini matching pieces. So, if you have an 80% download for example, you can just find another user with matching 20% and copy it.

The technology makes it possible to transport huge content files like movies across internet computer networks. This has brought BitTorrent network into already contentious fight between copyright proponents and those who want to continue to trade anything on file sharing networks free of charge.

The ability to send movies to users in very little time for example, made them pretty threatening. The Motion Picture Academy or MPAA recently filed suit and most of major BitTorrent servers are now offline. Mirror servers are still working outside U.S., but it is unclear if service and concept will survive.
