Video Sharing
is an IP Multimedia System (IMS)
enabled service for mobile networks
that allows users engaged in a circuit
switch voice call to add a
unidirectional video streaming session
over the packet network during the
voice call. Any of the parties on the
voice call can initiate a video
streaming session.
File Sharing
Stands for "Peer to Peer." In a P2P
network, the "peers" are computer
systems which are connected to each
other via the Internet. Files can be
shared directly between systems on the
network without the need of a central
server. In other words, each computer on
a P2P network becomes a file server as
well as a client.
The only requirements for a computer to
join a peer-to-peer network are an
Internet connection and P2P software.
Common P2P software programs
include:
Kazaa
Limewire
BearShare
Morpheus
Acquisition
BitTorrent
uTorrent
FrostWire
BitComet
Ares Galaxy

Is file-sharing illegal?
Whether file-sharing is illegal or not depends on exactly
what is being shared and under what circumstances.
There are certainly legal uses for file-sharing software.
For example, some musicians chose to make their
music freely available on file-sharing networks to try to
generate interest in their music. It is also legal to share
works that are in the public domain.
However, it is generally illegal to use file-sharing
software to trade copyrighted music or other
copyrighted works (e.g., movies, software, photographs,
etc.) without the copyright owners permission. In other
words, it is the copyright owner (whether a relatively
unknown independent artist or a record company which
owns the copyright to a very well known artists
recordings) who is legally entitled to decide whether to
make their works freely available through file-sharing.

ESTABLISHMENT OF
VIDEO/FILE SHARING
Video Sharing

Traditional methods of personal video
distribution, such as making a DVD to
show to friends at home, are unsuited
to the short, low resolution phone-
generated clips and their burgeoning
number.

On the other hand, the increases in speed
of current broadband Internet connectivity
are well suited to serving the quality of
video shot on mobile phones, tablets and
cameras.

Before Vimeo and subsequently YouTube
changed the way videos were hosted on
the web, the first Internet video hosting site
was www.shareyourworld.com (now
closed).

Just like the modern hosting services, it
allowed users to upload clips, or full
videos, in different file formats.
YOUTUBE

YouTube is the third most visited website in the world
Over 800 million viewers visit YouTube at least once
every month
Over 4 billion hours of video are watched on YouTube
every month
72 hours of new video are uploaded to YouTube every
minute
70% of YouTube traffic originates from outside the US
YouTube has locations in 43 countries and carries
content in 60 languages
In 2011, YouTube had more than 1 trillion views or
around 140 views for every person on Earth

Many file systems in use only
supported short filename. Computer
memory and speed was very limited.
The very basic ideas involved with file
sharing were experimented with. Most of
the protocols (like BitTorrent) that were
involved in file sharing.
Data compression technologies for audio
and video (like MP3, AAC and MPEG1)
were only usable by the general public
towards
The 8-inch floppy disk, the first removable
magnetic medium.
first Removable media, is developed by an
IBM team led by David Noble. It allows
for manual file transfer. It would become a
target of media industry efforts against the
sharing of intellectual property.
Client and tracker software in this era was
in development as much as the
transmission protocols, so the file trading
software was not always as reliable as it
could have been.
