In opening remarks delivered at the first inaugural Email Technology Conference, Vint Cerf, chairman of the board of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers and one of the architects of the Net, said he’d recently discussed BitTorrent with at least two interested movie producers. “I know personally for a fact that various members of the movie industry are really getting interested in how to use the Internet — even BitTorrent — as a … method for distributing content,” said Cerf. “I’ve spoken with several movie producers in the last month. They are only just now starting to come to honest grips with the possibilities of using the Internet.”
