Nope, sorry, Tor is a multihop network. The cost to the net is about 7 times (hops) your own usage, so you will never be able to "stream" VOB/TS in realtime, because each such home broadband user simply doesn't have that much bandwidth to give back. And no, except for estimates of idle users, no one's going to donate it from elsewhere for you just so you can watch <whatever>. So you'll crush yourselves out before you even get started. And that's before you try to scale a million concurrent users in the HSDir. Yes, multihop darknets make a good filesharing platform, but only for non realtime delivery within the dictates of your hop count. You're better to call it "popcorn week, at your cost". -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
