@jibe-b @voronoipotato just note that importing from a torrent and keeping seeding it are two different things, as keeping sharing poses a few questions/problems:

• keep the original file after transcoding is not something we do yet
• do we share it over WebRTC when only its transcoded version will be streamed in PeerTube?
• if we only share alone (without WebRTC only the server will share the file), then why implement it in PeerTube when there are dedicated clients?
