Since PPLive use BitTorrent technology, it will automatically find different connection nodes and download stream data from the nearest location (nodes). The good thing is, stream data is buffering in the memory, not on the hard disk.

Apart from PPLive software, you’ll also need Windows Media Player 9, WM9 codecs, and RealPlayer 10.

Now it seems that we have a new winner. eDonkey, its rival who actually have more power to search for content, but similar speedy download features, is now used more than BitTorrent. eDonkey’s rise comes after highly publicized Hollywood legal campaigns against BitTorrent hubs, which have resulted in the disappearance of many of the most popular sites using that technology. The Motion Picture Association of America is also targeting eDonkey users, but that network has gained less publicity. Moreover, eDonkey also has been translated into local languages in many countries around the world, aiding its spread overseas.

Other surveys have previously noted that eDonkey had long since replaced Kazaa as the network with the most numbers of simultaneous users. CacheLogic’s survey focuses instead on the volume of data flowing through networks.
