+## Demonstration
+
+Want to see it in action?
+
+ * Demonstration servers:
+ * [peertube.cpy.re](http://peertube.cpy.re)
+ * [peertube2.cpy.re](http://peertube2.cpy.re)
+ * [peertube3.cpy.re](http://peertube3.cpy.re)
+ * [Video](https://peertube.cpy.re/videos/watch/f78a97f8-a142-4ce1-a5bd-154bf9386504)
+ to see what the "decentralization feature" looks like
+
+*Currently PeerTube is still in alpha (we plan to release a beta in march). Demonstration servers do not support public registration. If you really want to test PeerTube before the public release, here is a list of PeerTube servers: https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/wiki#other-peertube-servers.*
+
+## Why
+
+We can't build a FOSS video streaming alternatives to YouTube, Dailymotion,
+Vimeo... with a centralized software. One organization alone may not have
+enough money to pay for bandwidth and video storage of its servers.
+
+So we need to have a decentralized network of servers seeding videos (as
+[Diaspora](https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora) for example). But it's not
+enough because one video could become famous and overload the server. It's the
+reason why we need to use a P2P protocol to limit the server load. Thanks to
+[WebTorrent](https://github.com/feross/webtorrent), we can make P2P (thus
+BitTorrent) inside the web browser, as of today.
