How do streamers affect the seeders? I'm guessing that they don't keep the entire video file in the browser and contribute 'their share' back to the torrent, do they?
- ripdog 7y agoHonestly, I'm not seeing any signs of webtorrent usage at all. It appears to be a normal stream from a normal server. Even if they don't store all the video, and just proxy the torrent sessions, I'm not sure how they could afford that. The video loaded very fast for me. It's quite impressive.
