# Content Distribution

Content distribution through a P2P network has two main issues. The first involves download speed: retrieving a file from a DHT or distributed peer-to-peer storage system has traditionally been slow, especially in a graphical application like the digiverse.

The second issue involves availability: ensuring that content is sufficiently distributed around the network without loss. IPFS and the upcoming FileCoin protocol are addressing these issues and we are looking forward to when they become production ready.
