Looks like another P2P company is launching.

Sounds like another spin of OpenCola/Swarmcast with Mike Homer, Jim Barksdale, Marc Andreesen and Benchmark as the conspirators. Imagine a P2P network that delivers media to clients at a fraction of the price of traditional networks. Files are broken up into pieces, clients fetch pieces from different clients and reassemble.
Seems kind of silly but big money is being thrown at it.
