If somebody was a genius, they'd write a bittorrent content delivery software that arbitrages those pauses with preloaded ads.

And then someone would come along a few days later with a client that doesn't display those ads.

You'd still have to wait for the first block of data (piece in BitTorrent lingo) to complete.

I'd rather have a buffering symbol than an ad.

Nice one! Plus you would not have to download ad.

No!
