It wouldn't be. Torrents can be faster than centralized platforms, whole serving better quality. I watch torrents while they're downloading all the time, never feel slowdowns, and usually they're done downloading before I'm even 1/3rd of the way through watching the content

Would torrents be seeded in relays? Content stored on blossom servers? I’m fuzzy on the technical details.

Franzap and Kieran have both demoed splitting up files over different blossom servers.

Don't really know what the next hurdle is.

Probably someone with time and funding to build it.

5 million sats and I'll build a PoC (joking, but if someone were to zap me that amount I would actually do it)

5 million sats isn’t a lot. This would be a good crowdfunding exercise.

Don’t know what that means. Sounds cool, let’s see it actually working.

It'd make sense to me to torrent in a community-scope.

And only participate in seeding the content of the Communities you're involved in.

Yeah, I don’t want to raw dog any video content from outside my WoT.

You wouldn't have to. You would be able to choose whose content to seed
