[ Thanks to An Anonymous Reader for this link. ]

Tribler is a cross-platform, decentralized Bittorrent
application which means it doesn’t require any torrent website to
find and download content. Another cool feature is that you can
stream videos directly, without having to fully download them
firstly (only with VLC 1.1.x for now).

The recent Tribler popularity also resulted in more frequent
updates by its developers so I though I’d make a PPA so Ubuntu
users can easily get updates without having to manually check for
and download new versions. You don’t have to use the PPA, as
Tribler offers .deb packages for download, but you won’t get any
automatic updates.
