bittorrent

Own subject. In terms of organizing a media content resource. It is possible to distribute files via p2p from the server itself, it is also possible to run an ftp server and distribute files through it. Daily attendance of more than 5000 users on the resource. Help with the choice and please explain. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

ftp - users will be able to upload your files through the browser, all traffic will go through your server. Very easy to organize, just put the files on the server.
torrent - users will be able to download only through a special client, the load on your servers will be reduced significantly. It is more difficult to organize the distribution, you need to put the files in your torrent client, and create .torrent files
