P2P File Sharing

File sharing is exchanging files on the internet. That includes somebody uploading files and somebody downloading files. File sharing allows sharing more than just music files, such as movies, documents, books, etc. In P2P sharing, users are able to connect to a network and search for shared files on other user's computers (peer-to-peer). If the files are too larges, they are broken down and then reassembled after they are downloaded. An example of P2P file sharing is BitTorrent.
