Fully embraces own doctrine that "the only way to control your content is to be the best provider of it."

Norwegian state broadcaster NRK has decided to set up its own BitTorrent tracker and plans to use it to begin offering content "on a more regular basis."

"The tracker is based on the same OpenTracker software that the Pirate Bay has been using for the last couple of years," it says in a statement. "But it will only be used to distribute content from the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation (NRK)."

NRK started looking into using BitTorrent for distributing content after seeing how much of its own programming was already available on BitTorrent tracker sites.
