digital formats of various files such as word documents, images, eBooks, music,
movies etc. through network and accessories like pen drive, disk, hard drive
etc. with other users. Peer to peer (P2P) file sharing is file sharing and
access to them within peers over the network. Any peer can edit or alter others
files. Some examples of P2P file sharing is group presentations, Skype screen
share. People also use it to fix up any software problems of remote computers.

Find Less Pressure Borrowing From Each Other May 10, 2013 http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2013/05/10/182651552/peers-find-less-pressure-borrowing-from-each-other
Interesting I did not realized Skype is a form of P2P. Most people associate p2p with illegal sharing of movies and music, but there are many other uses of p2p, such as communication in this blog.
