BitTorrent Bundle was built to empower creators: to help break down barriers to storytelling. On Bundle, an album can take the shape of a video game. A video can be 3D printed. There’s no limit to the type of file you can distribute. There’s no limit to quality. And there’s no limit to size. In 2013, Madonna used Bundle to distribute secretprojectrevolution: a 20-minute film dedicated to open expression. The 2K video project was downloaded more than 1.9 million times. Mickey Hart’s 4K concert video, Superorganism, was downloaded by 900 thousand fans around the world.
Starting today, Mance Media has made an exclusive collection of 4K videos available direct-to-fans via BitTorrent Bundle. The four films, The Toy Soldiers, Dragons: Real Myths And Unreal Creatures, Scarlet’s Witch, and Circles of Life: Iceland, were shot in native 4K. The 90 minute films have ben compressed from 300GB to under 3GB, with 5.1 surround sound — and without any loss in resolution or quality. If you’ve got a 4K TV at the ready, grab the collection. Each film is available worldwide for $5 - $6.

Nowhere on this planet can the gripping origin of life, growth and decay be observed as here.
