Our freeware group will be releasing its next aircraft for Flight Simulator soon, and I'm thinking about using Bit Torrent as a way for people to download it.
The reason is that the place we host our files at is having tons of problems. But we can't host the files ourselves because of the huge demand the plane will have (our last one had 21,000 downloads in 24 hours)
I'm thinking that we MIGHT be able to host if off our site if we use BitTorrent to distrubute it.
Thing is I don't know much about setting up a torrent on my own webspace. Is what I'm thinking of even possible? Or should I try another BT like program?
