Re: how many shows to share at the same time?

If you're seeding 10, you can deliver 10kB of each to the leechers for each show every second.

The more shows you pile in, the slower it will get for those leeching, surely, because each show will get less of your available data?


(Any techie feel free to correct me if I'm off the mark with this...)
sorry, i should have specified that i meant regarding torrents & errors. i'm well aware of bandwidth allocation.
