I'm sure you've heard of the controversy of Comcast, a large US based ISP, throttling bandwidth used by the Bittorrent network. Did you know that behind all the press and news stories, Comcast was actually talking to Bittorrent and giving them advice? Apparently some folks from Comcast were trying to negotiate something out with Bittorrent on how to solve the problem, that some folks from the network side of Comcast were trying to solve by throttling the bandwidth. Considering the fact that there are still talks between the two companies, Comcast users might soon be able to download legal torrents full throttle again.
