BitTorrent picks up right where many other networks like Kazaa have left off and takerepparttar file sharing game to another level. BitTorrent was created to be used by people inrepparttar 109966 film industry to send massive content files from one location to another.

To accommodate many users and not tie up their bandwidth,repparttar 109967 software sendsrepparttar 109968 information to you by trading pieces ofrepparttar 109969 file from multiple users alongrepparttar 109970 way.

To add a file, you create a generic BitTorrent file name, uploadrepparttar 109971 information and then anyone looking of that type of media can try to download it.

It gets a bit tricky however becauserepparttar 109972 BitTorrent file system uses their own BitTorrent extension.

It’s not like a Kazaa system where you can simply type inrepparttar 109973 name of a person or of a move and have allrepparttar 109974 search results returned in a format where they are easily identified. It takes a little bit of work to get used torepparttar 109975 system but it seems to be working quite well since so many users have been using it lately.

Here’s a quick rundown of how it works:

1. A user wants to share a file, so he or she creates a .bitTorrent file which identifiesrepparttar 109976 file and blocks of content that are included inrepparttar 109977 file.

2. You upload it to one of their super nodes to be shared.

Hip Hop Music continues to rules the music charts

Written by Syd Johnson


Hip hop music is dominatingrepparttar online and offline music charts. Hip hop music fans experience an “it’s about time” moment every time they turn on MTV, VH1 or any local radio station that doesn’t specialize in country music. Even urban channels that used to play only mid tempo rock music have diversified their rotations to include more hip hop music.

Why is hip hop suddenly everywhere?

Suburban Kids! They latched onrepparttar 109965 beats, nouveau riche lifestyle full of machismo and bling, and they latched on torepparttar 109966 party. Hip hop might have started out as a companion to rap music, but today,repparttar 109967 two musical genres are a world apart. Hip hop is funky, full of energy, dynamic, catchy, male, female, American, European, Asian and Indian all atrepparttar 109968 same time.

Modern hip hop is so dance friendly that frankly no cares aboutrepparttar 109969 lyrics anymore. I can name a bunch of up and comers inrepparttar 109970 field including Lloyd Banks, Ciara (or anyone else out ofrepparttar 109971 Missy/Timbaland factory) and Chingy. Then, let’s not forgetrepparttar 109972 3 million people that make up G-Unit and D12. That’s pretty cool.

Now, can I name one verse of any song, by any of these artists? Of course not! These people are selling hip hop music forrepparttar 109973 club. If I hear even three seconds of a song from any one of them, I’m onrepparttar 109974 dance floor. Still, I can’t come up with two solid lines to any of their songs. Why?
