Current peer-to-peer applications generate a large percentage of the traffic over the Internet and, more relevant to this paper, a large fraction of that traffic relates to distributing video content [30]. However, with current systems, the users need to download the complete file, and as a result suffer long delays before they can watch the video. Recently systems such as CoolStreaming and others [15, 32, 38] have been very successful in delivering live media content to a large number of users using mesh peer-to-peer technology. However, it has been an open question whether similar P2P technologies can be used to provide a VoD service. A P2P VoD service is more challenging to design than a P2P live streaming system because the system should allow users arriving at arbitrary times to watch (arbitrary parts of) the video, in addition to providing low start up delays. The fact that different users may be watching different parts of the video at any time can greatly impact the efficiency of a swarming protocol. The lack of synchronization among users reduces the block sharing opportunities and increases the complexity of the block transmission algorithms. Peer-to-peer networks promise to provide scalable distribution solutions without infrastructure support. There are two fundamental approaches to building P2P systems: (a) tree-based (push) where trees (or, forests of trees) are usually constructed for dissemination of data [7, 11, 24], and (b) mesh-based (pull) where peers exchange random blocks [18, 26]. Mesh-based systems do not enforce a structure on the overlay topology
