Red Swoosh (www.redswoosh.net) does sequential P2P swarming for “on demand” streaming video playback.  For example:

What’s the difference between “chunks prioritization within time window” and “sequential downloading”?  How can you stream without sequential downloading?

I don't get why they are not implementing a Bittorrent variant for play-while-downloading (chunks prioritisation within time window). Read a paper once about bittorrent mod, saying that's more efficient than sequential downloading. Ever heard of swarming-enabled p2p protocol for on demand ?
