We are going to read through a few set of simple steps ,that could help you to share huge content with your fnds and family using P2P. As soon as I said P2P, the first thing that pop2 to your mind is pirated content. Well P2P is used to share a lot of Pirated content, but not all content is pirated. It even used legitimately for sharing big files such as Fedora, Ubuntu OS Images, Free S/W, other content... etc :)))
Anyways
1) Create a torrent file, that basically creates a snapshot of u r file in few words.This is used for verification and also contains the tracker URL.
2) Share the torrent file with other users who would like to download this content.
3) The public tracker that I use is "http://tracker.openbittorrent.com" and this information is provided in step 1.
Once u r fnds use the torrent file using any of the torrent clients like Vuze, Transmission, the client would contact the public tracker, which would then provide your IP address* for download.
More the # of users, the less the amount of time it takes for the download.
*NOTE: You need to load u r torrent to be hosted ,else the tracker would not know that you have the content to be shared.
Hope this is simple to understand...
