BitTorrent has just made it even easier to publish your own media creations with the launch of an exciting new self-publishing platform. The project, which is currently invitation only, assigns genres, tags, a Creative Commons license, and other details to any original content that you upload. There’s even the chance to hit the bigtime – editors will review submitted work for listing alongside major motion pictures and studio releases. Networks and labels already involved include MTV, Sub Pop Records and 20th Century Fox.
According to BitTorrent, uploaders will have exposure to an audience of around 150 million BitTorrent users and be given a hefty limit of 3 GB per upload.

If you’re new to media publishing, this is a highly recommended way of getting started – just submit your e-mail and details on the BitTorrent website and cross your fingers you are one of the lucky winners.
