Hi all,
reading the protcol specs of Bittorrent I don't understand if once a
peer A connects to a peer B through a socket S what are their roles:

1. A downloads and B uploads. If B wants to download a piece from A
then B must connect to A with a new socket S2
2. Both A and B can download/upload from each other using S


thanks for clues.
D.
