Abstract
According to a peer-to-peer protocol, a peer-to-peer network includes multiple clubs and multiple peers that receive content distributed by a source of the network. Each of the multiple peers is part of at least two of the clubs. A joining peer identifies a club of the peer-to-peer network to join and receives identifying information for peers in the identified club. The joining peer randomly selects from the peers in the identified club at least a first peer and a second peer with which to establish connections. The random selection is proportionally weighted by the number of connections the first peer has with other peers and the number of connections the second peer has with other peers. The joining peer establishes a first connection with the first peer and a second connection with the second peer.
