The BitTorrent protocol is used to distribute large files widely without the original distributor incurring the entire costs of hardware, hosting and bandwidth resources. Instead, when a file is distributed using the BitTorrent protocol, each downloader supplies pieces of the file to other people, with such benefits as reducing the cost and burden on any given individual source, providing redundancy against system problems, and reducing dependence on the original distributor.
