In this paper we analyze the lifecycle of content shared via the BitTorrent network by focusing on torrents retrieved by mobile phone clients using the MobTorrent application. MobTorrent is a full-feature BitTorrent client for feature phones. It has a profiling mechanism which was used to collect anonymous usage statistics over the last two years. Based on these statistics, we analyze how mobile BitTorrent clients are being used. We also investigate the successfulness of single client sessions by performing additional measurements of peer connection success ratios and download statistics. This research can be considered as a pioneer work in the field of mobile content sharing solutions, as MobTorrent is one of the first and most popular BitTorrent client for features phones. |
