I was having a conversation with z00dax on IRC, and the suggestion was made that I post about this to the mailing list:
CoBlitz is a nifty free distribution service for large files over http, that utilizes PlanetLab's network of hundreds of machines to provide bittorrent (or better)-like speeds while offering many of the advantages of bittorrent (less stress on mirror sites).
The website is: http://codeen.cs.princeton.edu/coblitz/
So I take it they are using their own mirrors and aren't distributing the load over existing mirrors like Metalink http://www.metalinker.org/ does?
