User:Toussaint/SMIL and Broadcatching

OK, so you have SMIL, BitTorrent and RSS. RSS and BitTorrent have been successfully combined for the purpose of broadcatching, the combination of Broadcatching and SMIL has yet to occur. SMIL has alot to offer to Broadcatching or to other multimedia distribution and syndication methods: it turns multimedia into hypermedia by breaking up parts of media into context-linkable parts, linking media to media, video to video, text to text, within a sequential, Time-based framework.

So how should SMIL be combined with Broadcatching?


 * Should .smil files be placed into RSS-syndicated torrent files in order to link the accompanying media files (inside the torrent) with each other and with other multimedia outside of the torrent, making the torrent a self-contained playlist of .smil files?
 * Should .torrent files be placed into RSS-syndicated .smil files in order to link the torrents with other torrents and with non-torrent hypermedia, making the .smil file a playlist of torrents?
