Peer-to-peer (p2p) video-on-demand (VoD) is increasingly popular with Internet users. Currently deployed pure p2p VoD systems provide poor general performance and they lack advanced features such as fast forward and seeking to arbitrary points. Peer-assisted VoD systems can provide such services, but they require very well provisioned source servers (or server farms).
