Direct download (DDL) in English corresponds to the dissemination and downloading of audio or video depending on client-server model, that is to say directly using your browser. In fact, you do not need to install additional software, it is possible to download a video easily.

This distribution method has gained momentum with the arrival of Internet Piracy and monitoring of P2P networks. Indeed, it is impossible to detect a person who downloads a movie illegally from browser.

It is therefore necessary to differentiate between P2P to distribute a file between several people and the DDL that occurs between a client (you) and a server that stores the file.
