About

The Aim

This section, maintained by Valentin Spirik , will focus on the how-to and technical aspects of producing, finding and distributing audiovisual content using the new autonomous media infrastructure.

This is a Wiki - if you, the reader, have information that you feel is missing and want to share: get involved and help building the P2P Audiovisual section!

The Wiki Text and The Directory

The Wiki text that follows tries to give the reader an overview to the the audiovisual P2P net by filtering the vast amount of available information by asking questions like "Is this useful, can it be recommended - is it somehow in the interest of either the majority of people or a neglected minority?" (Instead of being a link or site that first of all promotes the interests of e.g. a company.)

The Directory (entries currently listed underneath in Articles in category "Audiovisual") on the other hand tries to collect related sites and links of all sorts - including commercial services - where the criterias mentioned above might or might not apply. Over time however a critical evaluation of the individual entries can be done.

General Hint about Web Services and Software

Just because a web service has a pretty site or because a particular software is open-source does not mean that it is useful for everyone. Especially in the Web 2.0 world there seems to be a certain tendency - maybe out of sympathy for a P2P related project - to over-hype a service or a software project. While this Wiki tries to point in directions that hopefully are useful, the reader's own critical judgement is encouraged when exploring unknown territory or installing and using new software.
