Distributed tracking, the sexy new torrent feature..

Since the death of SuperNova.org, many people in the file-sharing community have been rushing to provide solutions. While Products like EXEEM have filled the gap, some people (like me) have stayed away due to it as closed source nature. However, that has all recently whe n Azureus was the first torrent client to provide support for embedded tracking. Now, the official Bittorrent client is getting in the game.

That being said, I'm looking forward to being able to use these clients to provided the type of multimedia content that I've been to cheap to buy hosting for. I suspect allot of other bloggers will jump on the band wagon as well. I suspect the community will see an even greater increase to the podcast community.. (When is the podcast bubble going to burst?)

BitTorrent - Trackerless: "BitTorrent Goes Trackerless: Publishing with BitTorrent gets easier!"
Azureus : Java BitTorrent Client: "Azureus now features an embedded tracker easily set up and ready to use."
