  • picotorrent

    A tiny, hackable BitTorrent client.

  • btfs

    A bittorrent filesystem based on FUSE.

  • Some systems are more appropriate than just those options, but it requires player cooperation.

    For instance on Android, NOVA Video Player supports torrent streaming. Or btplay from https://github.com/johang/btfs .

    The way they work is better for the network, because it asks only for the N next MB from current position to be available ASAP, but the rest can be downloaded randomly to help the network like a standard client would do.
