Intel on Peer-to-Peer

Related Topics – RIAA

As reported a while ago, Intel was interested in starting a Napster-like service for consumers and companies. Well, now the Intel execs are talking about it and they really are going forward with their peer-to-peer service, which is more focused on the combined processor power part than any file sharing that goes on. Mainly because everyone is providing their own computer power a lot of money can be saved, Intel is even saying it has saved them half a billion dollars during the past decade by using several older computers they had to run simulations. Intel is "neutral" when it comes to Napster, but of course the RIAA will be watching any development with any Intel sharing service very closely.

This could be good. Intel is big enough to defend itself against the RIAA, if and when the nutjobs that run it decide to sue. Then hopefully the RIAA will lose, which will hurt the rest of their lawsuits...

Ok, I'm confused...

Is this new Intel sharing thing more like Napster, or SETI@Home?

Sounds more like SETI because Marteen is talking about CPU power sharing and shit.

So they're focusing more on enabling some kind of common distributed computing eh? So long as those who would actually profit from using my cycles PAY ME, all is good. Map makers, scientists, and other not-for-profits, on the other hand, can use my spare cpu cycles for free.
