BitTorrent To The Rescue

According to TorrentFreak, many Britons will be without TV service that they have already paid for because of ongoing disputes between the two major networks. This means they will not be able to watch shows that are currently in the middle of their runs in the UK. Enter the P2P protocol BitTorrent. With BitTorrent and websites that host trackers for American TV shows, savvy Britons have access to episodes that will not air for some time on UK TV. Why pay for two services when you can get all the shows you want plus more via the Internet?
