Marcus turned me onto the IBPvo project that uses LoRS. Without a doubt something big media companies will want to take a look at. Currently you can set a 'vcr' to record any television program, and download it super fast from distributed nodes. I can't get access to the system because it is intended for scholastic and research purposes only and I guess I don't qualify. I was hoping to figure out a way to attach an exnode (that's the file (200kb) you receive in the mail when your recorded program is ready for watching) as an enclosure in an RSS feed. I will pay for access to such a system/service/feed. Feel free to send me any exnodes you have layin' around :)

The more I play around with this system, the more perfect it seems for RSS enclosures. When you store a file, it has a lease of 1 day before it is purged from the system. More than enough time for an aggregator to download the file and store a local copy. Self cleansing distribution and storage!

I've attached an exnode of an mp3 if anyone wants to give the system a try.
