The MPAA and RIAA crowed, but it appears the celebration was a tad premature. Suprnova's new site mentions <a href="http://suprnova.org/">a special announcement</a> tomorrow at 9 PM GMT on <a href="http://www.novastream.org/listen.m3u">NovaStream.org radio</a>. Rumors suggest that it will introduce <i><a href="http://p2p.weblogsinc.com/entry/1234000913024815">Exeem</a></i>, a decentralized, BitTorrent-driven software client that turns every user into a tracker, removing the requirement for a centralized site such as suprnova, while providing users with easy searchability, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bittorrent">swarming powers of BitTorrent</a>, and a network that is far harder to shut down. tag:metafilter.com,2004:site.38224 Wed, 29 Dec 2004 18:06:40 -0800 bittorrent exeem mpaa novastream riaa softwareclients suprnova insomnia_lj
