9 | ## Why | ||
10 | |||
11 | We can't build a FOSS video streaming alternatives to YouTube, Dailymotion, Vimeo... with a centralized software. One organization alone cannot have enought money to pay bandwith and video storage of its server. | ||
12 | |||
13 | So we need to have a decentralized network (as [Diaspora](https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora) for example). | ||
14 | But it's not enought because one video could become famous and overload the server. | ||
15 | It's the reason why we need to use a P2P protocol to limit the server load. | ||
16 | Thanks to [webtorrent](https://github.com/feross/webtorrent), we can make P2P (thus bittorrent) inside the web browser right now. | ||

57 | Then you will can access to the three nodes at http://localhost:900{1,2,3}. If you call "make friends" on http://localhost:9002, the pod 2 and 3 will become friends. Then if you call "make friends" on http://localhost:9001 it will become friend with the pod 2 and 3 (check the configuration files). Then the pod will communicate with each others. If you add a video on the pod 3 you'll can see it on the pod 1 and 2 :) | 72 | Then you will can access to the three nodes at http://localhost:900{1,2,3}.
