P2P or peer-to-peer networking is a way of sharing/downloading files without having the need for servers since everything is provided by the users. In a peer-to-peer network it is the users who determine how fast the download speeds will be and there is no need for an external storage server since the data is stored and passed on from user to user. In order to a peer-to-peer network to work there has to be several people downloading or uploading the file.
