Disclosed are example embodiments of methods and systems for increasing the bandwidth available to transmit content or data from a source, for example located at a central office or head end, to one or more computing platforms, such as notebook computers, located, for example, but not by way of limitation, on or near subscriber premises. Content is segmented and transmitted to a plurality of computing platforms, each platform receiving at least one different segment, using, for example, a first distribution network such as a digital subscriber loop (DSL) network. Using a second network, such as peer-to-peer wireless connections between the platforms, the platforms exchange the segmented content and reassemble the content to its un-segmented form, so that the distribution capacity of the first network can be aggregated.
