I spotted a story in the Financial Times yesterday, that said that Game Group who are the largest independent video games retailer in the UK, was going to announce a partnership with Games Domain International that will reduce the time taken to download games from several hours to minutes.
I would like to know how GDI’s technology is able to achieve this, and why they are focusing only on games. Although most broadband connections are fast enough to cope with downloading music, we could all do with a bit more speed, particularly as lossless files are in the 20-30MB range. GDI’s technology would also be fantastic for videos.
Any idea how they are achieving this? GDI’s website is virtually non-existent, so I couldn’t find any clues there.
