Move Ahead of the Competition by Incorporating BitTorrentTM Technology

Broadband Internet penetration has crossed the tipping point reaching more than 47 percent of US consumers and over 220 million subscribers globally. Today's connected users consume rich media at an ever-increasing pace, with BitTorrent accounting for over half of all traffic on the Internet. Broadband access is fueling demand for connected experiences beyond the PC. To truly enable the consumer Internet media experience in the living room and on the go, all of your connected devices should "speak" BitTorrent.

Already, many of today's leading consumer router and network storage makers are differentiating their products by promoting optimized and integrated BitTorrent technology. BitTorrent Device Partners leverage the power of the world's leading peer delivery network to efficiently and economically build rich media experiences for the consumer.
