Mininova set to launch torrent video streaming Mininova, the very popular torrent site has begun testing a torrent pwered video Streaming feature that would give users the chance to videos streamed from .torrent files.
When it becomes completely publicly available, it will be integrated into the "featured torrents section" where Mininova "lists all the distributors taking part in its content distribution platform."

The "Swarmplayer", as the streaming service is being dubbed, was created in collaboration with the "Tribler" team from the Technical University Delft and Free University Amsterdam.

The site is looking for people to beta test the service, say Erik, one of the admins: “We are looking for people who would like to be in the first testing group who test the software, report suggestions and bugs you find. Please reply in this topic if you want to participate in this closed beta.”



Make sure to check it out.
