Well,
I wrote a device driver for Windows 8 that would mount a .torrent file as a virtual disk way back in 2011. We pitched the intellectual property around to several large companies. The only interest we had in the technology was video game companies... where we could mark file pieces as 'high priority' and allow the player to play the game even when the game disk was partially downloaded.
The IP was sold to a company developing their next-generation console video game system as part of a 24 million dollar package and never saw the light of day. I suspect what they really wanted was the associated patents.
